Not opting out of the Nude-O-Scopes is no guarantee of not being on the receiving end of the new grope procedure, as this will be used to resolve any anomalies in the Nude-O-Scope. Also, as of today, it seems hand held metal detectors will no longer be used in lieu of groping, even to resolve an alarm with the walk through metal detector.
I've always been very careful with what I choose to wear when I fly. No jewelry at all, and my watch goes into my carry-on which goes thru the scanner. The underwire bra stays home. No bobby pins or clips in my hair either. Still, I did set the WTMD off one time, with just a gum wrapper in my pocket.
I've tried to not give the TSA any reason to pat me down, and now I will be doubly careful. I would much rather the scan than to be groped.
