Time - The Transportation Security Administration, having been hammered by the public for their use of body imaging, is field testing a new technology...The software, called Automatic Target Recognition, or ATR, displays only a generic stick-figure image, rather than the actual outline of the traveler being screened. And instead of a security officer in another room looking at the image — a step TSA took before to make sure no one was feeling ogled — the passenger can check out the cartoonish abstraction alongside the security officer at the checkpoint.
Well that kinda takes the fun out of it from the TSA standpoint, no? I mean the entry level TSA workers job already sucked, low paying, dealing with people that irrationally hate you from the moment they step through the airport doors, feeling up old guys balls and fat lady FUPAs. Now they're taking away their detailed body imagers? I have a feeling that's going to be the last straw, and frankly, all the terrorists need to win this battle.
Surely this will lead to less and less young, unemployable men going into this glamorous field of law enforcement. With no one left to man the screening stations, America's airports are going to become terrorist's play grounds.
