December 31, 200916 yr I see the TSA has ordered Full Body scanners to be implemented in airports across the country. While I appreciate the security aspect, is this not overly invasive?
January 1, 201016 yr Active Members It's less invasive than a pat-down and a lot less invasive than a strip search! So they went with just imaging the body or a mixture of imaging and the puffer gates? Those tiny rooms that hit you with a puff of air then sniff the result for explosives would've been more effective for the latest incident--and best of all they're automatic instead of requiring brilliant TSA officer interpretation... But I heard the imagers were built in an important congressman's district. So now our bodies will be scanned 10 more thoroughly than our carry-on, with checked baggage still not nearly all scanned and cargo scanned even less.
