You are also emitting microwaves as blackbody radiation. In order to cause heating they need extreme intensities only found on radar dishes and inside a microwave oven. Radio waves can be harmful when they reach high enough intensities. However the phones and laptops are just fine.
VERY old tube televisions on the other hand could be pretty dangerous. They were essentially particle accelerators and could generate X-rays. Newer tube televisions and LCD displays are completely safe, unless you count the possible disruption of sleep by producing light 16-24 hours a day.
