I'm not going to argue the previous methodology or effectiveness of airport security - IMHO - if I get on a plane that someone blows up, it was my time to go, also- my wife and sons will be able to pay off the house, her car, and set up some nice college fund.... but thats beside the point.
What are they going to find ? I think that if they can turn normal people into naked people, they can find anything they want. This can be a good or bad thing (just like words, guns and thoughts)
What I can't seem to find (and was asking of this thread, although in an obtuse manner) was the resolution. From what I can tell, these machines got installed in US airports (PHX and Miami IIRC) and the ACLU issued a statement saying "we don't like it". And thats it. No court challenges, no lawsuits from women who found themselves pictured on the internet without their permission, no denoument (sp -4). Its as if the issue were not a big enough deal for the ACLU/lawyers to pursue.
...and if it wasnt (I'm not sure of this) then its up to Europe to carry the civil rights flag...or let it die like their American ACLU buddies (?), And we the people will just live with another "invasion of privacy/security measure"
Any progress on this story in the US ?
