Sky Harbor International Airport in Phoenix will start using a new machine by Christmas that has some people up in arms. The backscatter, as it's called, has been around for a while but is now being used as a new tool in the fight on terror. This is what one may look like after going through the machine. This is obviously a picture of the back and the machine will allow screeners to see bombs or other threats while blurring the naughty parts. If one has body image issues, they can still get the traditional pat down. The machinery has also been tested at London's Heathrow Airport. Is that a weapon in your pocket or are you just happy to see me? Indeed.
