        @rootworx @Snowden @YouTube Looked like a full body scanner, so they would have seen a hidden compartment.

        @gfreemaui @Snowden @YouTube Not to be too crass, but that means a flash drive hidden between your asscheeks would be invisible to scanners.

        @rootworx @Snowden @YouTube It also didn't have to go through the bag scanner. Any chance it'd be detected there?

        @gfreemaui @Snowden @YouTube Yes, if it was in a bag. So would the hidden compartment, that's why he threw it. No need if it's in your butt!
