Newsflash: They already look for nervousness at airports. The only difference is now they're aided by software. It's a bit like how searches have always existed, but now they've got X-ray machines. Nothing new, in other words.

Unless you want to invoke a slippery slope fallacy and state that better airport screenings will somehow lead to a society where your every twitch is recorded, this is completely irrelevant. Airport security is a joke. Compare it to the security of places which actually have screenings - mental hospitals, for example.
