(NaturalNews) The following is an article by
Steve Watson, an in-house reporter for InfoWars (
www.InfoWars.com). Steve covered the astonishing breaking news of an engineer who revealed a shockingly simple loophole that completely defeats the TSA's "naked body scanners" and would allow anyone to smuggle guns, explosives, box cutters or practically any metallic objects directly onto airplanes.
Even more astonishingly, as this story reports,
YouTube immediately censored the video of this engineer in order to prevent the world from seeing it. So now YouTube is covering up for the TSA which is running a total security hoax that can be easily defeated by someone with only
a $5 sewing kit!The original article appears at:

Google/YouTube has placed restrictions on yet another video that exposes the fraudulent claims of the TSA and highlights how the federal agency's security theatre is part of a wider social manipulation agenda.
Engineer Jon Corbett of the popular blog TSA Out of Our Pants! (
http://tsaoutofourpants.wordpress.com/) posted a video yesterday that demonstrates how the TSA's radiation firing body scanners can easily be bypassed.
The video shows Corbett carrying a metal case through the scanner, away from his body in his side pocket. Corbett explains that because metallic objects appear as black on the image the scanners produce, the machines do not pick up such objects if they are obscured by the background, which is also black.

TSA for invasion of privacy. His case is still ongoing and is headed to the U.S. Supreme Court.
"The scanners are now effectively worthless, as anyone can beat them with virtually no effort." Corbett writes on his blog. "The TSA has been provided this video in advance of it being made public to give them an opportunity to turn off the scanners and revert to the metal detectors. I personally believe they now have no choice but to turn them off." he adds.
Within hours of the video being uploaded, blogs and news sites, including Yahoo News and the Mail Online had begun to pick up an the video, saying it was sure to go viral.
Now, despite the fact that the video contains no nudity, violence, abuse or other explicit content, YouTube has placed it behind an age restriction wall, meaning anyone who wants to view it on YouTube has to login or sign up for an account and verify their age.
"This video is not intended to teach anyone how to commit criminal acts, nor is intended to help "the terrorists" -- if I could figure this out, I'm sure they've long figured it out, and by exposing it to the public, we now have an opportunity to correct it." Corbett writes on his blog.
This means that the video has been restricted for no reason other than the fact that it is critical of the TSA and the government.
Corbett also explains in the video that multiple experts have already pointed out that the scanners can be easily bypassed and are next to useless at detecting explosive material and even metallic objects, meaning that standard metal detectors are more effective than the costly and potentially health threatening radiation firing scanners that are being rolled out in greater numbers across the country.
The same type of censorship has previously been applied by YouTube to other videos that have been critical of the TSA.
Last month, Mike Adams of Natural News produced an animated video (

Within hours the video had been restricted by YouTube.
