Social+Media

11/17 - "Social Media Effects Airport Security" The power of social media is shown yet again, in this situation. A man recording his experience at an airport, where he refuses to be searched by the new full body x-ray machines being implemented in airports across America, went viral this week. People would of eventually found these machines a problem because of all the rights being violated but this video was an eye opener for many people. Sure there are pros to having these machines- tighter security; makes it harder to smuggle drug or weapons into our country. Despite this many people are identifying all the cons of these machines, most of them involving rights being violated. Sure it may be embarrassing to most people but I believe these precautions are necessary, just as long as there are limits to how far the TSA goes. Patting someone down should not be implemented in airports but instead the use of the x-ray machines are a better solution, I believe.
