No link between mobile phones and cancer rates

Yet another reputable study has found no link between mobile phones and cancer rates. This one was reported in the International Journal of Cancer by the Finnish Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority; in a survey of 5,000 people it found no relationship between mobile use and risk of intracranial tumours. The authors did hedge their bets a bit, saying that longer-term studies are needed before absolute conclusions can be drawn.
