No.
The people responsible for these decisions and the people who carry them out are always exempt from the nastiness they produce. Wishing for retaliatory actions against other innocent pax whose only crime is wanting to fly is not cool. None of us innocent pax have done anything wrong.
I think this is all just leading up to a HUGE money grab. The US has started this mess, and the only way out of it is going to be US-produced, US-patented expensive technology (whether or not it is effective). We will install the equipment in all US airports and then insist that any foreign airport that doesn't buy the US equipment will have to subject US-bound pax through a deliberately punitive process.
