I'm not 100% sure, but I don't believe there's any problem associated with it at the dilution levels that are used in water treatment. On the other hand, the impact it has on oral health is substantial. I think there's room for a rigorous, objective debate on the topic, and I don't believe in casting people into the sea if they arrive at a different conclusion.
Unfortunately, this is one of those topics that's been captured by conspiracy theorists resulting in a significant amount of ideologically driven disinformation being propagated on the internet, so you have to be careful about your sources, while keeping in mind the scientific consensus.
You can find people who believe things that are wrong, but since they have a title these ideologically driven people will latch onto these minority viewpoints and use that as proof they are right and everyone else is wrong. In other words, scientific outliers shouldn't be treated as the scientific consensus.
