    This sounds overblown. There’s no direct link to any study in the Guardian article, nor in any of the similar articles that came out today.

    Searching ToxFree project got me this site, but skimming over this I couldn’t find anything with “headphones”.

    Some other terms got me to ToxFree Life for all, but that’s just the petition without any research either.

      It’s actually not news that every electronic is covered in carcingenic chemicals out of the factory. I wouldn’t dismiss the risk, knowing what I know about companies soaking furniture in carcinogens for flame retardants that don’t actually work to slow fires. Or a million other areas. In fact trusting the authorities are looking out for your welfare at this point is just laughable.
