This technology is part of ongoing preparations by government in the U.S. to further intimidate U.S. citizens. The pretext of scanning for potential terrorists, in use throughout U.S. airports, was the real weapon, which in the absence of spirited public opposition (i.e. market boycott and direct action tactics - not whining on Facebook or wasting money on lawyers), has carved out further ground for the surveillance use of X-ray scanning. The conclusion is inescapable; the man from Saudi Arabia is winning.
