Many airports are now using full-body scanners. How do you feel about going through a scanner that can actually see through your clothes ?

If it stops some idiot blowing people up then I don't see a problem with it.

Nothing Wrong with a Hard On.

It's a hot debate if I want it to be.

MarkWaldorf · 13-09-2010, 05:46 PM

I don't think it's even 'i'm too shy to do it', it's actually a really big invasion of a person's privacy. But then again, it'll always cop down to those who are confident enough and those who are too insecure. Passengers have a choice, right?

Some airports will allow you to go for a body search by a member of the same sex. On religious or medical grounds etc. Though its not obligatory to offer it, and it is also dependant on having spare security personnel and facilities available for the search.

Some airports like Heathrow say you refuse to sybmit to a scan, you dont fly.

Angus · 13-09-2010, 05:52 PM

I've got no problem with it, but then again I remember travelling to Israel years ago, and being strip searched by female Israeli soldiers at customs, and I mean "searched" in every conceivable orifice! These days people who get on their high horses about the invasion of their privacy, need to get a grip and understand it HAS to be done - if anything I would say, it's about time.

Lol, sorry, but I'm going to get on my high horse here for a minute! I do think there's a privacy issue involved to be honest with you.

Ok, I can understand the practicality of it, but there's always the human element here to consider and how it could be actually abused in some ways.

On the Rapiscan system that is being brought into most UK airports, the images generated were saved to the machineand had to be authorised to be deleted.

The system has been changed so that only scans that have been selected to be saved as evidence can be saved. Printouts have to be authorised by security managers, etc.

I still think it's an invasion of privacy though Terry, and who knows what's stored or not?

And sure what about the danger of your gonads getting fried from all the X-rays? Nah, I'm against it, even though I'm totally aware that I'm being a fuddy duddy.
