    … “Radiation Levels”

    I cant stand this. While yes, technically radio and microwaves radiate from a source, we do not use that term to describe anything but particles capable of ionizing other particles. Phones cannot produce UV, Xray, or Gamma radiation. If they are emitting particles from radioactive decay, that would be a level of maliciousness.

    I would assume fixing radiation levels via software update can only mean lower radio power -> worse signal strength.

    Because the article doesn’t mention it: Will this update be applied to french iPhone 12s only or is this going to affect more phones?

    Also, is this affecting the standard 12 only or also 12 Pro and Pro Max?

    Lmao they’re only doing it for users in France, not everyone else. I know it’s technically not dangerous and the regulations there just makes the threshold lower, but it sounds so maliciously compliant to do it just in France.
