Security??? Yes, I think that's the point. Or politics if you're cynical, which I might agree with. Sorry for my brevity, I may have come across the wrong way. What I mean is that this measure doesn't take away control over of person. It's voluntary, just as with a EULA. You could, I guess, argue that EULAs are immoral because they take away your freedoms, but I don't hold that view. Strictly interpreted my second sentence is trivially false; this whole thing is about controlling the ability of people to take weapons on planes, so let me refine my statement: it's not about power and control over the visibility of your genitalia, which follows from the fact that you still have control over it. What something is 'about' is a stupid semantic point, and not really worth arguing. More interesting is what it does. Money is spent, TSA officers see through your clothes, you are to some extent hindered from bringing weapons on planes. I consider the seeing through clothes part as the least important term in the equation, hence my confusion and the massive argument. Just wondering, what kind of security checks do certified pilots have to go through before flying?
