Backscatter X-rays in Airports
Filed in archive Travel Industry on March 1, 2007
Backscatter X-rays could be the next possible addition to airport security, as reported by the Sun.
What exactly is a backscatter X-ray?
Well, think of Superman. It can see through your clothes. It is also capable to produce photo quality views of you, with a very revealing view of your tires and whatever else it is you can hide beneath your clothes.
The resulting X-ray image is very accurate and life-like. ANd this is exactly the reason why many are against the use of backscatter x-ray machines in airports.
So... what about you? Would you rather have someone pat you all over for hidden objects or is the use of backscatter X-ray better for you?

Hmm. I think if it is only used if I beep after going through the metal detector, then I would prefer it to a pat-down.I might be a little embarrassed if they can see all the fillings in my teeth, but oh well. Other than that, I don't think I would have much to hide. I just hope it's not something that would ever be considered for every single person going through security. Ick.
