Road Warriors bare all for TSA – Millimeter Wave X-Ray
CNN.com posted a GREAT article about the TSA’s plan to roll out millimeter X-Ray to more and more airports. I hope someone releases the scans of our top politicians.
The option of walking through a whole-body scanner or taking a pat-down shouldn’t be the final answer, said Chris Calabrese, a lawyer with the American Civil Liberties Union.
“A choice between being groped and being stripped, I don’t think we should pretend those are the only choices,” he said. “People shouldn’t be humiliated by their government” in the name of security, nor should they trust that the images will always be kept private.
“Screeners at LAX [Los Angeles International Airport],” he speculated, “could make a fortune off naked virtual images of celebrities.”

Hey Philip, You travel a lot… have ever had the “XXXX” on your boarding pass (meaning complete random search taking around 20min) and a very personal pat down? Which would you prefer? The old personal pat down or new method?

I would prefer the pat down than nude photos..
