A man has been awarded monthly social security payments after a court found that his brain tumor was caused by a company-issued cellphone.
Roberto Romeo was given a phone by Telecom Italia, which he used for three hours a day for 15 years in the job.
Over time, he developed a non-cancerous tumor and the loss of hearing in one ear.
On Thursday, it emerged a court in the northern city of Ivrea has sided with Romeo, ordering the mobile network giant to pay him up to 7,000 euro a year (around $7,500).
This is bad news for the telecom companies as more and more people are going to hear about this and start connecting the dots in their own lives and health issues. The California health department was recently sued because it kept cell phone health warning hidden from the public and I believe it was because the telecoms bribed someone in the government to keep it secret so people wouldn't sue them in the United States either. The truth always comes out sooner or later and these telecom companies need to man up and admit they've be harming people. Once that is done they can work on building a safer cell phone for consumers.
