Court Likely to Uphold Constitutionality of 'Nude' Airport Scanners | Threat Level | Wi... - 0 views

  •  
    Airline passengers in the United States understand they will be treated as suspected terrorists when going through airport security checkpoints. Yet nearly a decade after the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks, airport security has become a lot more invasive with the rollout of the so-called "advanced imaging technology" scanners, paid for with $1 billion in stimulus funds. The scanners - now deployed at about 78 airports - use either millimeter wave or backscatter technology to create a virtual picture of the traveler's naked body. The image is then viewed by a screener  with the Transportation Security Agency iin a sequestered room away from the checkpoint.

    At first I had no intentions of using this article as a bookmark, however, after I got to reading it I realized the implications it has in regards to public administration. As technology advances and becomes more prominent within society people are finding more uses for it for personal and emotional gains. As more technology is available, it is more likely that children will have access to these also. This article describes the schools and law enforcemenets efforts to combat the problems that technology can bring to our society. This article also suggests public policy involved in these types of cases and can also spark ideas into ways that policy can become better and more fine tuned to fit the needs of our society today.
