In order not to risk jeopardising citizens' health and safety, only security scanners which do not use X-ray technology are added to the list of authorised methods for passenger screening at EU airports.
This legislation allows airports and Member States that wish to use security scanners for the screening of passengers to do so under strict operational and technical conditions.
People who see the headline are going to think Europe isn't going to be deploying body scanners. But this story is about the opposite: The headline should be, "Europe approves passive-millimeter full-body airport scanners, prepares for rollout."
This has always been the sensible course of action; millimeter-wave machines are far safer than x-ray machines.
How about that. The EU has a system limiting government authority to a list of enumerated powers, while the US government runs around doing whatever it damned well pleases.
US Government: please go back to your copy of the Constitution (I assume you still have one) and re-read the 10th Amendment.
