As mentioned in class and in the textbook, body scanners are being used more and more in international airports. In order to increase privacy, the body scanners were supposed to be made "non-recordable" - the scanned images were not supposed to be recorded on the scanner. However, it looks like that didn't quite work out...

Recently, a friend of mine who works at YVR said YVR got few body scanners. Are they storing these images as well? If so, for those who travel regularly for their work, doesn't YVR basically gets full body pictures of those people in regular basis? I don't event want to go into how can they use those pictures.
