We already know that it misses items in body cavities. That might include anything trapped between large layers of body fat (which has been used to smuggle in items to jail). This report means it would also miss items form molded. OK, we can just switch to profiling since none of the high-tech will stop low tech methods of smuggling on a bomb.
And that's assuming they don't Fedex or UPS it.

Privatize airport security and stupid incompetency along with unconstitutional groping will be a thing of the past. Get the government out of the business.

Tape a box cutter to the bottom of your feet...Hijacking a plane with a box cutter was a one shot deal. If they tried it again today, they'd be a slick spot in the aisle by the time the plane landed.

I'm not familiar with the plastic explosives, but, AFAIDK, they are all nitrogen compounds. I
Do know (from personal experience in cardiac ICU, that
nitroglycerine (from "patches") is readily absorbed through the skin -- and, when that happens, it gives you a crippling headache. In fact they also administered morphine to dull the nitro headache.
It would seem that anyone stupid enough to mold a nitro explosive to H/H body should be recognizable by evidence of either severe pain or drug stupor...

the backscatter full-body imaging X-ray machines ... could be fooled by terrorists who simply would mold explosives to conform to their bodies.
C4 explosive plastic is very moldable

Exactly! And Al Queda had a guy explode a bomb in his rectum just last year.
They clearly are able and willing to do it.
They could do it tomorrow and TSA would catch nothing.

Can’t they just wrap it in Saran Wrap?

I still say we should just employ bomb/crotch-sniffing dogs. They’re much more efficient and cost-effective.
To: Cementjungle
except that terrorists can spend time and seal bombs so that they don’t emit any smells.

YEah - what policy - tell that to the cancer survivor who was forced to removed her prosthetic breast a couple weeks back...

I believe that it is possible to seal material that it doesn’t emit any molecules. It doesn’t last forever, but it is possible. Vacuum sealing + using special packaging.
