This sort of thing is inevitable. Technology is getting too small and too powerful. Right this moment, airports are implementing scanners that display your naked body to a bunch of salivating civil servants in the back room. They have no information about your identity so that makes it okay, folks! It's better than being body-searched, isn't it?
You can be sure that in a few years technology will be available to see right through walls.
The whole concept of privacy is going down the tubes. I'll probably die before it becomes unbearable, but you kids are going to have to live with it. The genie is out of the bottle and that's that.

For once we agree, Fraggle.
But for the life of me, I don't understand how or why you can't see the good in something like this?! You see the good in everything else, why not this, too? Or are you ready to admit that humans are fucked up and getting more fucked up?

How could a complete lack of privacy be a good thing at this point of evolution? A lot of humans can't even get past the fact that people *gasp* actually have sex...outside of marriage!
The potential for soap operas and reality TV would soar however (ugh) :puke:

" T-rays allows a camera to effectively see through smoke,
walls and even clothing and bandages "
