wowwhat you had for breakfast
I kinda hope the technology does work
1) perhaps they can find the source of that recurring gas issue
2) they'll be so jealous of my 6-pack (Three love handle fat rolls on each side is a six-pack, that's my story and I'm sticking to it)

Whether or not this particular device works something like it will inevitably be developed. However, I suspect the number of false positives will make its use unmanageable unless the search parameters are tightly focused. Also, if applied randomly in public places it's going to be difficult to single out the hits --they'd have to couple it with a photo, for instance, if they're not selecting individual targets. But yeah, when something like this hits the field it will definitely be abused.

Look at the bright side. You don't need to go to the doctor for that CAT Scan or X-Rays. Just go to the airport and then ask TSA for a printed report.artx wrote:I hope this technology doesn't work. I'm scared that it might. Imagine the 4th admenendment violations that could happen.
