My point is, what does a passenger care if their image is being viewed by some anonymous individual in a remote location, who cannot see the person and wouldn’t know if it was their sister, brother, or mother and is unable to associate that image with a person. To that person viewing the picture, its nothing more than a very low quality black and white picture of what “may” or “may not” be a person. And like I said over at EOS, 99.4% of the humans in this country should not EVER be seen in the nude. Myself included. Personally, I would find that to be the worst part of having one of these machines in my airport. Worse than being forced to watch Sponge-Bob for hours on end.
It can be proven that if a tree falls in the forest and there is no one around that it still makes a noise, so I don't know what to make of the attempt to argue by analogy other than an attempt to argue by analogy is a poor application of logic even if it is useful for spin doctors and their rhetorical effect.
