Airport Embarrassment

I am so annoyed at everything I am hearing about these stupid body scanners in the airports now. I understand and  do agree that everyone's safety is important and of big concerns while traveling, but from what it looks like, your privacy doesn't matter. In a article I read at http:/usatoday.com a tech site 'Gizmodo' published 100 low resolution body scans that were saved. I think that is so embarrassing and could be prevented. There are other ways around making sure people are not smuggling things or in harms way of course. But to think that they are going so far as to scanning your entire body through x-ray machine makes me wonder, what is going to happen next?! Wouldn't that be something else if we had to strip down in order to get passed security. Imagine how long before your flight you would have to arrive at the airport. :)
