Airports now have devices that scan people and see through clothing

Frankly, I don't know what to think. Sure, the person's face is blurred, sure the image gets deleted right after, but I still don't think it's acceptable procedure.

Perhaps a device more...more glossing over would be better, because this just looks intrusive.

Thoughts?

I can see it now... the TSA's will only be scanning hot women... :roll:

My childhood dream will come true when they build these scanners into glasses.

Hmm...

I dunno. At first, I was like WTF?

But it's less intrusive than a patdown. I would rather go through the machine.

Besides, I don't have anything to hide. lol

Just have guys look at guys and chicks look at chicks. NO biggie.

Yeah I know, I would have no problem if it was merely a machine operating this thing, but when it can be so easily manipulated like that...what the hell?


Perhaps the machine can scan people, and if it detects unusual shadowing, like plastic explosives, it can sound off the alarm.

Hmm.. so the terrorists should start using obese women as bombers? No sane worker will want to scan that

When I was a kid you could buy these glasses out of the back of any magazine.

Good reason for some people to visit the gym.

What about gays and lesbos?

I think this is going too far. It's already a royal pain to fly as it is and we need to step back and ask what kind of society we want to live in. free or scared shitless.

I thought it was totally absurd at first
Until I read the article

Yes, they are probably going to end up scanning everyone from what it seems like in the article
However, they are going to have a person in a room or someone that will scan everyone, and he will never get to see a face during his job. It's completely anonymous, double blind. No identies are revealed.

I feel sorry for anybody who has to look at me in one of these things!

Will there be a special line for exhibitionists who WANT to be scanned?
