bb said the one he saw was mandatory, unless I misunderstood him.

Well today at SLC it wasn't mandatory for sure.  I didn't go through it.  I chose my privacy  :).   Unless they have plans to replace all of them i don't see how they can take 4-6 metal detector lines in their Delta terminal and try and funnel them into one scanner the line wait would be insane.

this guy's story is interesting.

How to opt out of the TSA's naked body scanners at the airport

NaturalNews) I encountered my first airport naked body scanner while flying out of California today, and of course I decided to "opt out" of the scan. You do this by telling the blue-shirted TSA agents that you simply wish to opt out of the body scanner. Here's what happened after that:

A TSA agent told me to step to the side and stay put. He then proceeded to shout out loudly enough for all the other travelers and TSA agents to hear, "OPT OUT! OPT OUT!" This is no doubt designed to attract attention (or perhaps humiliation) to those who choose to opt out of the naked body scanner. I saw no purpose for this verbal alert because the same TSA agent who was yelling this ultimately was the one who patted me down anyway.

Wow, that's stupid and overkill IMO.

I am flying from Seattle tomorrow back home through Sacramento.  I left on my trip Sunday and there were not any scanners in the main terminal (Of Sac).  I will look tomorrow night and see if they have them yet.

I don't like this, but as things are these days, I have few choices.

Meg or Brown  >:(

Soon to be scanners or get a singled out.

I was in LAX recently and it sure didn't look like I had a choice.  Went through Honolulu and Atlanta and didn't see them.
