Jeri Ellsworth thinks the TSA are on to something with all of this body scanning brouhaha.

The TSA has gotten a lot of flak from frequent flyers because of their full-body scanners and questionable pat-down searches. Now, you can help others enjoy the same level of discomfort and invasion of privacy wherever you go with this DIY handheld body scanner.


Designer Jeri Ellsworth built her own version of the TSA X-Ray scanner out of inexpensive parts. Cute idea, but the images are, to be honest, piss poor. No self-respecting TSA employee would want to use it when he/she can get a high resolution image of a stranger's genitals at work.
