Opt out experience in Burbank
I tried to SDOO, but was directed to the MMW. I told the guy I opt out, he asked why and I told him medical reasons. He called a guy over who tried to talk me out of opting out, saying this was MMW and it was safer than a cell phone, and was not x-ray and did not penetrate the body.
I held my ground and did not have to go thru the MMW.
