My immediate reaction was anger, but if they do what the article states then it seems like a reasonable addition to the screening process. They say they'll only use the scanner on people who they suspect of illegal activity, as opposed to the US where they're scanning everyone. Also note that they model they describe uses radiowaves, which have little chance of causing health problems, there's a competing firm that sells scanner which use X-rays, which might be dangerous.
