Also, at airports face scanners are being used to search for terrorists. This amounts to illegal search and possibly seizure. I know they used them at last year's Super Bowl without consent or probable cause.
The Facial scanners aren't all they're cracked up to be.
about 1 in 10 scans are false positives which would easily lead to more annoyance then anything else.

I'm guessing that most terrorists aren't going to provide recent mug shots of themselves.

Those two problems alone amount to this technology being a large dose of smoke & mirrors with a good measure of FUD.
