Heads in the clouds

This was in the Guardian Magazine on Saturday:

There are plenty of quotes from Bruce Schneier; and an interesting comparison of different approaches to airport security: El Al's psychology focused approch versus high-tech Heathrow Terminal five (opening next year):
  • Machines that can give a 3D view of a bag's content and identify liquids and explosives hidden,
  • Fingerprinting,
  • Faces scanned.
Will all this make air travel more secure?
