I think the biggest misunderstanding has to do with the energy reduction at the square of distance, making pretty much anything not immediately touching you or being inside your head not an issue.
Phones and WiFi routers however will put out up to 2 watts of RF. Multiply by daily usage times a few decades, with a few hundred unknown factors
Your scull forms a resonant cavity and I don't like the idea of using it to bounce microwaves, even though blutooth is pretty low-power. Resonant cavities form standing waves, and all bets are off.

I will just have to refer to the philosopher Albert Yankovic, who in his essay titled "Dare to be Stupid" suggests one "stick your head in the microwave and get yourself a tan" among other pieces of advise.
In all seriousness, in neuroscience research laboratory animals are sacrificed by high power microwaves precisely for the reason that it preserves metabolic and anatomic integrity of the brain and its tissues better than any other form of killing.

That is interesting! I would think that high-power microwaves would boil water and disrupt tissues.
Not likely to give you tan though.

Mismatched priorities — Folks, I am in a terrible mood. A dear friend just lost their 16 year old child to a motor vehicle accident. It is horrible and unfathomable pain they must be feeling as a parent. My heart breaks for them. Yet the policy draft out of the United States government for making children healthy again makes no mention of this, which is the number two leading cause of death in children. (Number one is firearms.) It does however mention the need to do more research into the harm...
