I'm stopping before clicking onto the 2nd Google search page.

So, like, two things here.

First: all that happened here is: I read a lot of stuff about this, and "don't get a full body scan" is a super common message actual experts deliver. I remembered, and repeated it on a thread.

Second: how weird is it that you somehow remembered some otherwise-long-forgotten slapfight thread and brought it up unbidden like this? You should charge me rent if I'm going to live in your brain like this.
