Wait wait wait wait.
First - Yes backscatter x-Rays are bad - we agree on that. Don't confuse those with mm-waves. My parent comment is literally about how X-Rays are bad, so no conflict there.
Second - High Energy mm-waves are bad for health (in the same way extremely bight light can be bad for your eyes). HOWEVER, as far as I can tell, none of those sources say prolonged exposure to low energy mm waves (like the kind in scanners) is bad. THAT's a big difference. Prolonged exposure to low-level X-rays is very bad. The same is not true for mm-waves (again, unless you have a source that says that).
