h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Most people who are using the hands-free systems are doing so out of some mind-boggling idea this is now saving them from the radiation which may (or may not) be coming from their phones.

So let's have a look at a few of you who may be using a hands-free kit. How many of you now have the phone in your pocket? - trouser of breast pocket. THERE's still emission. So really a hands-free kit gives you a choice or radiation near your head, heart or reproductive organs.

It's about time a hands-free kit which could keep the mobile about two feet away from any vital organ. Any ideas, a big stick with the mobile taped to it maybe...

As far as I'm aware all hands free kits still emit less radiation than certain background levels of radiation, yet we do not see a cry for people to move away from areas which are high in igneous rocks do we.

Has anyone considered the implications of using a hands free kit configured to auto-answer and then somebody sends a 'null' ringtone to one's mobile ?
By null ringtone, I mean a simple ringtone sequence that deliberately produces no audible sound.
When an incoming call arrives, nothing is heard but the mobile answers the call and switches on the microphone...
Not only do 'they' know where you are, but now they're listening too..!
