I tend to vote against this type of security by opting out of the scanners. If even one quarter of the passengers opted out they would need to reexamine their security - one that would likely not include the expensive scanners or intrusive pat down tests. I just get to the airport 10 minutes earlier. They do seem to intentionally penalize you with delay, and often question why you're opting out.
Yeah they asked me why I opted out. I said "I don't trust the government". Then I imagined a CIA robot zooming in on me. I clarified: "I don't trust the government with medical x-ray procedures"
