Slashdot Blogger Says Full Body Scanner Makes Kiddi Porn

According to a Slashdot Blogger, there is an ongoing court battle in the UK over the legality of using full body scanners. Some contend that according to a certain UK law, the scanners create child porn, because the end result is a "pseudo-image of a child".

While I'm inclined to agree with interpreting that law in the same way, I am amazed that in some places(and soon in the U.S.A.) it has to come this to get people to realize the amount of freedoms lost just in the name of security. In my previous posts, I argue that the TSA has no bearing whatsoever on what they deem a threat, and therefor have nothing in particular to look for. This is dangerous. It's just like taking a blindfolded man, giving him a gun, puingt him in the room with hundreds of good people with only one terrorist, and telling him to shoot the terrorist within the next 10 seconds.

Racial and ethnic profiling is the only way to go if we must provide such stringent security measures.
