TSA Gingerbread Man Software and Privacy Concerns

The TSA is piloting new body scanner software that replaces detailed anatomical images with a generic "gingerbread man" outline. The hosts analyze the choice of the term "gingerbread man," linking it to a 1998 film directed by Robert Altman and written by John Grisham. They argue the terminology is a form of subliminal messaging that treats travelers like children or "slaves."
