From EPIC.org:
EPIC has filed its reply brief in the suit to suspend the Department of Homeland Security’s controversial airport body scanner program. The brief argues that “the TSA has acted outside of its regulatory authority and with profound disregard for the statutory and constitutional rights of air travelers, the agency’s rule should be set aside and further deployment of the body scanners should be suspended.” EPIC filed its opening brief on November 1, 2010, arguing that the body scanners are “unlawful, invasive, and ineffective.” On January 6, EPIC held a one-day public conference “The Stripping of Freedom: A Careful Scan of TSA Security Procedures” in Washington, DC. Oral argument will be heard in the case on March 10.
