They've just gone over the line in my opinion, and again, there's a proper time for a pat down, there's a proper time for an advanced technology body search, but it has to be done with some thought.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We're excited about how tech can be used to get tech out of the way.
I still believe there is a need to open up search and it will come eventually. It is very important to challenge the current models.
I think we have to be more forward-looking when considering any legislation dealing with technology.
In fact what I would like to see is thousands of computer scientists let loose to do whatever they want. That's what really advances the field.
Today, technology is moving faster than the research establishment.
Our pat-down approach is very similar to what is being utilized in Europe and, as we know, around the world. It's even much more thorough in other parts of the world.
Technology will never last if it ignores human beings' basic instinct to express and discover through expression.
We have so many thousands of sites to find across the globe and new techniques to test. The field keeps evolving with the technology, which makes things exciting.
We are living, we have long been told, in the Information Age. Yet now we are faced with the sickening suspicion that technology has run ahead of us.
The reason we are doing these types of pat downs and using the advanced imagery technology is trying to take the latest intelligence and how we know al Qaeda and affiliates want to hurt us, they want to bring down whether it is passenger air craft or cargo aircraft.
