Don't know, or believe, there were any medically related issues
addressed by that rider, albeit the Finns were studying cell phone
radiation early on, but rider to the bill gave them common carrier
status to legally prohibit people with scanners from monitoring what at
the time were mostly (if not all) analog radio transmissions. Early
users of cellies, much like now, weren't technically literate enough to
realize that the sex talk they were making with their GF on the side (or
that business deal) was 'in the clear' for anyone to hear, and when they
began to find out, the cell phone industry trembled, and lobbied
congress for common carrier protection from eavesdropping.
