Despite a planned day of protest against the Transportation Safety Administration’s (TSA) practices of using revealing full-body scans at airports across the nation — including Lindbergh Field — the Internet-driven backlash was largely invisible last month.

Many indicated they were more willing to submit to the full-body scans than be subjected to invasive and perhaps humiliating pat-downs as a result of refusing the scans.
