Last week, the Netherlands said it would introduce compulsory body scans for all passengers at Dutch airports as soon as possible. Just days later, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown followed suit, announcing that the scanners would also be introduced at airports in the U.K. However, the two countries may be on their own - other European Union members are hesitant to spend the money to install the scanners amid concerns over privacy violations and the effectiveness...
