Standing outside in the sun all day everyday is absolutely deadly.

That's somewhat beside the point though, isn't it? Wifi and Bluetooth are not giving off anywhere near that much radiation.
If that were the case, there would be no African tribes left alive.
Clothing, night-time, and shade all make their exposure far less than 24/7.

Also higher melanin skin blocks?/absorbs? radiation.

Well, things that are deadly don't necessarily kill everyone.
By that rationale, walking is deadly. Breathing is deadly. Sleeping is deadly. This is not a valid argument supporting the stance that wifi is deadly.
Sorry, I didn't mean to argue that wifi is deadly (because power is so much lower), I'm merely agreeing with the parent that the sun is deadly. I think the links to cancer are strong enough to warrant the term.
