+ <description><p>Aftenposten, one of the largest newspapers in Norway, today report
+that
+<a href="http://www.aftenposten.no/reise/Slik-skannes-kroppen-din-i-fremtidens-sikkerhetskontroll-490666_1.snd">three
+of the nude body scanners now is put to use at Gardermoen</a>, the
+main airport in Norway. This way the travelers can have their body
+photographed without cloths when visiting Norway. Of course this
+horrible news is presented with a positive spin, stating that "now
+travelers can move past the security check point faster and more
+efficiently", but fail to mention that the machines in question take
+pictures of their nude bodies and store them internally in the
+computer, while only presenting sketch figure of the body to the
+public. The article is written in a way that leave the impression
+that the new machines do not take these nude pictures and only create
+the sketch figures. In reality the same nude pictures are still
+taken, but not presented to everyone. They are still available for
+the owners of the system and the people doing maintenance of the
+scanners, as long as they are taken and stored.</p>
+
+<p>Wikipedia have a more on
+<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_body_scanner">Full body
+scanners</a>, including example images and a summary of the
+controversy about these scanners.</p>
+
+<p>Personally I will decline to use these machines, as I believe strip
+searches of my body is a very intrusive attack on my privacy, and not
+something everyone should have to accept to travel.</p>

- <description><p>I am very happy that we in the
-<a href="http://www.nuug.no/">Norwegian Unix User group (NUUG)</a>,
-spearheaded by Marius Halden from NUUG and Matthew Somerville from
-<a href="http://www.mysociety.org/">mySociety</a>, finally managed to
-upgrade the code base for the Norwegian version of
-<a href="http://fixmystreet.org/">FixMyStreet</a>. This
-was the first major update since 2011. The refurbished
-<a href="http://www.fiksgatami.no/">FiksGataMi</a> is already live, and
-seem to hold up the pressure. The
-<a href="http://www.nuug.no/news/Pressemelding__FiksGataMi_i_oppdatert_og_mobilvennlig_klesdrakt.shtml">press
-release and announcement</a> went out this morning.</p>
-
-<p>FixMyStreet is a web platform for allowing the citizens to easily
-report problems with public infrastructure to the responsible
-authorities. Think of it as a shared mail client with map support,
-allowing everyone to see what already was reported and comment on the
-reports in public.</p>
