I have just remembered that this was a subject we talked about on Saturday,
in reality it is the view from a new type of camera at American airports, the new technology, developed by New York based L3 Communications, has raised concerns after it was revealed that underwear is visible in the scans, the scan blurs out the face of the passenger, and the image is not stored, however, the American Civil Liberties Union said the body scanning technology could be too intrusive as it could project images of mastectomies and catheter tubes, the Transportation and Security Administration has placed the scanners in airports in Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, Miami, San Fransisco, Tulsa, Okla and Albuquerque, in a pilot program,
for me it would be a bit strange, being paid to undress people all day even if it is electronically, I would have thought a buzzer or something would sound if there is a metal object on them, oh wait we have that already! I am a bit late with the blog today as it has been raining so much, that means no Internet connection till the clouds disappear and at 1 this afternoon (Monday) Joe is calling round for lunch.
