So, I was watching House MD and one of the things they mentioned was that all electronics give off radiation. And that got me thinking, "is my PC monitor going to give me radiation poisoning because I send so much time in front of it?"
So I looked it up, and apparently the World Health Organization now lists computers as actual carcinogens.
How legit is this? Because it sounds really crazy.

Living is a carcinogen, and I would be more concerned as to the carcinogenic properties of 4chan over your PC.

Yes OP your post just gave me cancer.

Your phone increases your risk of cancer, so does getting an xray, going outside, flying, breathing oxygen, drinking alcohol, etc. Cellular mechanisms are sensitive machines and over time outside influences will break them down. Radiation is the least of your concerns OP, animals on earth have been getting irradiated for millions of years

If you have a CRT, you are getting a small amount of x-rays. But seriously, who the hell still uses CRTs?

>not having dedicated CRT for the superior image quality at the cost of screen size
Entire generation has now grown up knowing only the nasty blurry often bluish cloudy images produced by the cost cutting driven lcd plague. Sad.

not legit, that's just a fidget spinner

just like OPs autism, radiation is a spectrum
It's not ionizing radiation, it can only fry you up but not cause cancer. Thefire preventing chemicals in the other hand can cause cancer, if you lick your computer daily basis.
