I have an iPhone SE that's (apparently) 2nd generation 2020 - same year as iPhone 12. I'm a bit worried now.
The iphone SE (2020) has the body of an iphone 8 with the chip of an iphone 11 It's not related in anyway to the iphone 12, and was in fact released several months before it

It's not halting sunrise but there's a directive[1] that basically says (amongst other) "don't work under the sun without protection".
[1] Amended proposal for a Council Directive on the minimum Health and Safety requirements regarding the exposure of workers to the risks arising from physical agents — Individual Directive in relation to Article 16 of Directive 89/391/EEC (Text with EEA relevance) (OJ C, C/230, 19.08.1994, p. 3, )

Weird that we're regulating for 4W/kg of non-ionizing radiations

The phone doesn't meet the regulations which means it can't be sold. Whether they're good regulations or not is another matter.
I wonder why it took them 3 years to find out, I thought these radiation tests are pretty basic these days due to cancer scares some decade and half (?) ago. I think gsmarena publishes similar values in their summary pages, but maybe its just copy paste from release material.

bad take, different frequencies have different absorptions and biological effects...
People tried so hard to find the smallest negative effects of non-ionizing radiation (without p-hacking or silly surveys) and failed miserably. This is one of those rare cases where absence of evidence is evidence of absence.

The sun has ionizing radiations, this doesn't Weird that we're regulating for 4W/kg of non-ionizing radiations

A microwave oven has produces non-ionizing radiation, would you put your hand inside one while it's on? It's non-ionizing so it should be 100% safe right?
Incidentally, Tech Ingredients has a great video on using microwave ovens without an enclosure and how to block similar directed energy weapons that use a lot more than 5W: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lg_aUOSLuRo

At the power levels we're talking about (5W)? Of course I would. The effects are well known: It heats your hands up at 5 joules per second.
