Which Constitution-protected rights would you like to voluntarily give up next?

^In which a former TSA administrator straight up says they're violating your 4th amendment rights.
"Unreasonable" is subjective.
I for example have already stated I see nothing unreasonable about scanning me in a non-intrusive manner for weapons.
Forgoing that to be patted down in the name of modesty is an active choice.
4th Ammendment isn't even relevant here. We're not talking about officers randomly pulling over people without warning and strip searching them on the side of the road for kicks. We're talking about an institutionalized scan all passengers are equally subjected to. 4th amendment doesn't apply to searches at borders or airports except to require " \searches that intrude upon a traveler's personal dignity and privacy interests, such as strip and body cavity searches, must be supported by "reasonable suspicion." " which again, everyone treated equally is met.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.
