    Hmm, fertility dropped “from June 2007 through February 2011”. And they attribute it to the iPhone. But what else happened during that period? Oh right a big financial crisis.

    And there’s already data out there that shows an economic decline correlates to a drop in births

      I have my doubts too but to be fair they compared the data against Verizon and Sprint which did not have the iphone in that time.
