Opting out of multimeter scans: not even once
As the other child comment says, rights atrophy if you don't exercise them.

Yes. Besides the uncertainty about the harmful effects of that radiation, there's also the issue of how they collect and pass around the naked images.
Do you have any source of them passing around any images? Are they even able to do that without in-depth knowledge of the system?
It's sad how much flying has changed since 9/11. Younger individuals will never realize how much easier it was to get through security. I'm sad at how he was treated and it's something that needs to be changed. It's not like treating anyone badly is going to result in more information.

I'm more curious about any research into health effects of millimeter wave scans? My business partner always opts out claiming this but could never provide evidence.
Or, don't contaminate your stuff with dangerous chemicals before flying.

Sad but predictable in a world with a global movement of suicidal religious fanatics willing to murder thousands of people and cause billions in property damage. It is what is. I miss the old days too, but I wouldn't vote to water-down airport security.

Does it? He refused the millimeter wave scan, got a pat-down, tested positive for an explosive or poison, and then refused further screening - what should happen at that point? Should he be cleared? Where did the TSA go wrong here?

Couldn't the TSA agent viewing these images take a picture with their smartphone? That's just off the top of my head. I'm more curious about any research into health effects of millimeter wave scans? My business partner always opts out claiming this but could never provide evidence.

I haven't heard of any conclusive evidence that it doesn't harm either (and how could there be one, since they haven't been used for that long), but why take the risk in the first place
