in prisons. Too invasive for public use, but prisons have a different set of rules. There will still be a need for cavity searches, but this could speed things up.
It seems to me that it will require either additional training for the guards, who are reportedly overworked as-is, or bringing in additional people to work the scanners, which makes for additional weak spots in the security perimeter. The article doesn't specify if they're going to government-run facilities or also privately-run prisons, it also doesn't address the issue of ionizing radiation. But they're no longer in airports, which makes it a win for the traveling public and we'll just happily ignore any rights that prisoners have since so many of their rights are suspended once they're convicted.
