I don't want a nanny state at all but hey if the detector was just for your own personal use not sending out signals I would want it hey I would at least try find the guy before he set it off if I am going to die anyways. Go out fighting not bent over ready to take it in the ass.
I purchased my Civil Defense Cold War era Geiger Counter off of Ebay. Bought two for $20! So I don't need my cell phone doing that job for me. I would much rather have cell phones equipped with breathalyzers so that people can easily find out if they are too drunk to drive home.

It sounds like the idea is that cellphone owners who "opt in" would be paid by some government agency.

This is certainly true that expensive radiation detectors may not be that effective so why bother to buy a very expensive radiation detectors?..
