Despite a failed attempt by San Francisco, the nearby city of Berkeley is considering a law to require retailers to put stickers on cell phone boxes to warn consumers “of the risk of brain cancer when using cell phones within a 10 mm distance of their body.” But the city’s proposal is based on a misunderstanding says the US wireless association – the CTIA.

“Cell phones are a risk, and I believe the public has a right to information that’s credible, readable and understandable about the device they’re using,” Berkeley City Councilman Max Anderson, who’s co-sponsoring the ordinance, told the San Francisco Chronicle. “I’m not intimidated by the cell phone industry. The legal department might be, but I’m not.”

The recommendation to introduce a city ordinance – by Councilman Kriss Worthington – claimed manufacturers already put hidden warnings in cell phone manuals.
