進化(?)したX線検査
最近のテクノロジーの進化によって、ついに服を透視して検査できてしまうX線検査装置が開発されたみたいですね。

Get ready for electronic portals known as backscatters, expected to be tested at a handful of airports this year, that use X-ray imaging technology to allow a screener to scan a body. And yes, the body image is detailed. Let's not be coy here, ladies and gentlemen:
"Well, you'll see basically everything," said Bill Scannell, a privacy advocate and technology consultant. "It shows nipples. It shows the clear outline of genitals."
今回はあえて訳しませんが、これって相当問題ありですよね。。やりすぎ。まぁ何せ、国民の恐怖心をあおって成立しているBush regimeですからね。。これくらいのセキュリティは当然なのでしょうか。。
Scannell, the privacy advocate, scorns that reasoning as alarmist nonsense. He does see one virtue, though, for some airport screeners if backscatting technology becomes the norm.
"They'll be paid to go to a peep show," he said. "They won't even need to bring any change."
