Will you watch movies on phones that 'give you cancer'?

News today that cell phones potentially cause brain cancer won’t please manufacturers but will it have an effect on the way people use them to watch movies?

The mobile phone market is opening up to movies as short form content and viral videos head to cell phones like the iPhone. Although you wont be watching videos with your phone attached to your ear, the risks of mobile phone radiation are still unknown.

Cell phones have not been around long enough for us to truly understand their causes, but studies are continuing on the matter. Despite today's announcement by the WHO (World Health Organisation) no direct link between mobile phone radiation and humans has been established but there is a plausible risk.

Do you watch movies on mobile phones, or browse the internet using 3g or wifi networks?
