A new documentary titled Disconnect is aiming to be the first feature-length documentary to expose the negative health effects of cell phones. Filmmaker Kevin Kunze has interviewed doctors, scientists, politicians, activists, victims -- and of course Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak.
Kunze claims the film will document "the rise of a rogue industry" and will uncover the "the corrosive relationships which have corrupted public health."
Wozniak was one of several industry figures who lent his voice to the project, along with Virgin Mobile’s Richard Branson and the founder of one of the first telecommunications companies to offer cell phones.
Some of Wozniak’s comments from the project can be viewed here. For more information about the project, visit the official website for the film.

What a bunch of BS. Non-ionizing radiation is not strong enough to cause the genetic changes that lead to cancer. Let's throw out the science and just go with the talking heads. That's always a good idea.

They're not "throwing out science," they're using science to the make the statements. There have been several tests that show cell phones cause cancer and infertility. The fascinating thing is that the only studies that show cell phones are safe have been funded by the cell phone industry, which of course makes the results suspicious.
Go read some facts before you claim this and global warming are fake...
DISCONNECT includes interviews with neurological doctors, scientists, and researchers from Yale, Stanford, UC Berkeley, UCLA, UCSF, UCSD, University of Utah, SUNY, and Kaiser Permanente, along with commentary from the former Head of the Radiation Studies Program at the World Health Organization, the , Director of the Department of Toxic Substances Control for California's Environmental Protection Agency, and senior scientists at the Environmental Health Trust and the Environmental Working Group.
