TSA and new faith in technology
Image via Wikipedia
I just cleared security at RDU airport and for the first time in recent memory not one person looked at my boarding pass to make sure I was flying today. But the new full body scanner they put me in makes that unnecessary, right?
By the way, the picture on the right is of Susan Hallowell, a director at the Transportation Security Administration.

“Advanced Imaging Technology” is a euphemism created to make people think they are getting “scanned.” No one is getting “scanned” — they are getting strip searched.
The fundamental privacy issue is whether our government has the right to make strip searches routine and mandatory.
There is no question that these machines violate the 4th Amendment.
There are also health issues. Researchers are already coming out saying that the machines aren’t safe and could cause cancer.
