On: Did you know Keyboards have 60% more germs than your toilet seat?

Is number of germs really an accurate measure of how dangerous/infectious/dirty something is?

I feel like this is a (slightly less egregious) version of like "cigarettes have X hundred chemicals in them, therefore you will die!" when in reality it only takes one chemical to kill you, and many normal food products have roughly as many 'chemicals'.

That's a valid point. However, gadgets are used in the open or uncontrolled environment. Pollution and humidity might induce the gadgets with harmful germs.
