Went through FLL F gates last evening. Two Backscatter Human Xray devices installed. Traffic was low so no backup. TSA guy was directing people to the screening lanes. I was directed to WTMD but told the guy I would not go through Backscatter to see he took notice. A lady (pregnant) just in front of me refused the Backscatter Porno Strip Search and a pat down was called for. The only signage I noticed was images on the side of the machines. I saw nothing indicating a person has a choice to OPT OUT.

Seems TSA is forcing people to be screened by WBI.

FLL E Gates also has two Backscatters installed. Long lines at that gate. Saw several guys all in wheelchairs going to the E lines. I cannot imagine the hell TSA put these guys through.
