The Transportation Security Administration is pulling the plug on its nude body scanner program, a decision announced Friday that closes the door to a tumultuous privacy battle with the public scoring a rare victory.Travelers will continue to go through one of two types of scanners already deployed, but images of naked bodies will no longer be produced. Instead, software will instead show a generic outline of a person.

Great, just wonder how much the purchasing agent in Homeland Security got in kickbacks for buying a piece of junk that didn't work and operated by folks to dumb to go on welfare. Another govt boondoggle. I bet he is the same guy buying 1000 godzellion hollow points bullets at a premium. Ain't working for the federal government great.
