Frankly, I really don't mind if they want to zap me and have a quickie view of me. I travel - a lot. I guess I'm at the point where I've lost all dignity and don't really care what they do so long as I have a reasonable since of security when I get on the plane. What I'm REALLY hoping is that they will enact the Frequent Traveler Program here in the US. Under it, you go through a pretty extensive background check and then get to bypass most of the security at the airport. This I would pay for in a heartbeat and they can nudie scan me until their hearts are content. :-D I guess I have a different perspective on this.

Yeah, it's "low", but how many times in our history have we assumed something like that is safe only to find out later we have a bunch of people with far higher cancer rates? Look at the history of x-rays and radioactive material to see the trail of bodies. I'm already uncomfortable enough getting my dental x-rays, no freaking way am I going to let airport security dose me at their will. Remember you saw it here: if these machines actually gain traction, 20 years from now we'll be looking back talking about how idiotic we were for dosing all those people with the airport security x-ray machines in the 2000's.

Can you imagine seeing misshapen bodies all day? That would make me diet for sure! What is even scarier to me is having the job of looking at the X rays!

But then I suppose people will try to argue that its not them on the screen. :P Well, I think they could program the machine to block out the naughty bits or even not show the persons out of shape body… just show the objects on the display screen.
