Looks like the airport TSA backscatter scanners might be damaging DNA too:

Dave cuts loose on all the US airline security and TSA rubbish, their stupid reactionary process to every new security threat, and the new $9 Australia Post "Security fee" for all packages going into the US of 453g (16oz).
How will affect local business who export to the US
and don't try and ship any item with a tiny lithium coin cell in it!:
Quotes directly from Australia Post about the $9 fee when I asked them:
"Unfortunately Australia Post is not able to discuss security measures in place for either incoming or outgoing mail items."
"Some countries have had to ban all items being sent by air to the US, I think we got off lightly in comparison."
"The fee is charged by Australia Post & only covers our costs of the increased security arrangements imposed by the US..."
"We decided out of fairness to implement the fee rather than ceasing the carriage of all airmail items over 435g to the US."
