Underwear invention protects privacy at airport

[CASPER]

DENVER - It's a special kind of underwear — with a strategically placed fig leaf design — and a Colorado man says it'll get you through the airport screeners with your dignity intact.
Jeff Buske says his invention uses a powdered metal that protects people's privacy when undergoing medical or security screenings.
Buske of Las Vegas, Nev.-Rocky Flats Gear says the underwear's inserts are thin and conform to the body's contours, making it difficult to hide anything beneath them.
The mix of tungsten and other metals do not set off metal detectors.
The men's design has the fig leaf, while the one for women comes in the shape of clasped hands.
It's unclear whether it would lead to an automatic, more intrusive pat down by federal Transportation Security Administration officials.

I suppose they can use other design rather then a fig leaf. Everyone has the right to maintain his dignity while having encounter with this illusion of security. I am concerned whether it is going to be useful for long term?

I have read about this and there have been news stories on it. I just think it's probably just more worry over what we can't control. My answer is just to not fly.
