I'm not sure how that would work, particularly if you were returning from AMS and had visited a coffee shop. (For that matter, can a US citizen be prosecuted in the US for having visited an AMS coffee shop? For having indulged at that coffee shop?)
At the very least, even if the pax could clear him/herself after an invasive and protracted secondary, he/she would probably be on a CBP watch list and face a secondary for the rest of his/her life.
Should have read the entire post. These devices are for
CARGO Screening, not passenger. When I saw this on the TSA web I somehow knew that someone here would make that kind of assumption.
Now, if you try and pack yourself into a box and have yourself shipped as cargo I can see you being scanned by them.
