The Ultimate Prank: TSA Voyerism
Oh la la.
Who are we pranking today? Just the entire US Federal Government and all American citizens!
CNN is reporting on findings from a Freedom of Information request initiated by the Electronic Privacy Information Center that has revealed that, contrary to public statements by the Transportation Security Agency, full-body scanners can store and transmit images. The scanners can only transmit images when in “test mode.”1
You know what the ultimate prank would be? To hack into the scanners, copy all the nude images of passengers and start a subscription porn site hosted in Malaysia. Make a people search functionality where you can enter a name and it will show you their image. Nude X-rays of celebrities and foreign dignitaries can be seen advertised on the home page.
Now THAT’s trollin’ the US Govt.
