They should just finish the job and require body cavity searches for everyone. This would effectivly finish off the already dieing Airline industry.

It is only a matter of time. After all, how long can it really be before a terrorist realizes he can hide parts for a bomb in his ass?

By itself, it's no better and no worse than a pat-down. Detects all the same stuff. At Heathrow, they give them the choice. Get molested, or get looked at. Can't see why our implementation would be any different.

I'd gladly strip down to nothing if that would promise a safe trip, but it won't. Nor will this machine.

Don't worry, I'm sure that the media will find some saps to interview at the airport who feel MUCH safer from the eeeevilll terrorists now that their privacy has been completely intruded upon. :disgust:

WTF who cares. This is actually one of the few things the airports can do that wouldn't bother me in the least. I'd rather walk through 100 yards of this stuff than have to take off my shoes/watch/etc.

True, but it will only be a matter of time until airportscreenerporn.com is launched, showing retouched bootleg security scans of popular celebs with all the naughty bits in plain view. TSA screeners don't make a lot of money, so you know damn well that at least a few of them they're going to exploit this tool to make a little side income.

You can only pull that off if you do the thing where you click and point your fingers at the scanner attendant. And maybe throw in a "giggity!"
