As stated that is a logically truthful statement. The converse is also true: Those that they DO irradiate, they sometimes also molest.

Hence my addition to the top problems and solutions.

Problem: Imaging scanners do not detect WEI, only anomalies. Passengers typically do not have sufficient information at the airport to give properly informed consent.
Solution: Clear signs before and on each WBI scanner informing subjects that the scanner generates a naked image, and does not detect WEI. Clear statement from TSO before permitting a subject to enter a scanner that the scanner generates a naked image, and does not detect WEI. Verification by LTSO that the subject understands this shortcoming in WBI and that the subject may be subject to a pat-down without further warning if they proceed with the "optional" scanning.
Purpose of solution: Obtain properly informed consent of each and every passenger before subjecting them to the NOS.
