Do mobile phones kill?

I just came across another article here reminding me of the Big Question we get som many different and non-answers to.

I can’t help drawing parallels to the financial crisis. People saw the dangers in what was going on but as long as there was no crash nobody dared to blow the whistle. Is it the same with mobile phones and radiation? There has been no glaring cases yet so we keep on going. The extreme width of the outcomes from various studies is scary. It should not be that hard to determine.

Does a phone to your ear for 1 hour a day emit enough radiation to trigger tumours in the brain? Pretty straight use case to investigate and phones have been around long enough now to have some kind of track record.

The potential value destruction to come if mobile phones were unanimously deemed dangeruous is of course not good. But ignoring it would be worse. Being part of the industry it is hard to disucss the possible demise of your own livelyhood. But I rather do that than mourn human lives lost to a “Phone Cancer”.

Please help me dig up reports, studies and names of researchers in this field. This will be a long term mission of mine to get a straight answer.
