This seems to be a film promoting anti-cellphone nonsense. It has only one source, which is actually just the trailer. And the trailer starts with an impassioned piece to camera, apparently presented as a factual news report - the presenter is Stephen Colbert. The makers seemingly got trolled. It claims many notable "stars" but on inspection this turns out to be mainly archive footage. There's no real evidence of any importance at all. Guy (Help!) 15:31, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: This has been to AfD before: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mobilize: A Film About Cell Phone Radiation, and was part of an organized campaign to add Kevin Kunze to Wikipedia. I'll compare the two versions and see if anything new was added. I knew that this film seemed familiar. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:18, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

And it was moved to the userspace at this AfD, where it was called "Disconnect". Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:19, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't have anything new and it actually looks like this was an attempt to get around the deletion of the article's deletion last year. I'll speedy this and salt both entries. The original editor has already been blocked for copyvio issues, otherwise I'd warn them against pulling this cheap trick. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 05:22, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
