    Why mention how the device works?

    I agree Kapuna.

    *Bomber's Memo - Stop using acetone peroxide, which can now be detected by bomb detection equipment. *

    Boy, somebody dropped the ball on this one. Is it really necessary that the general public know the technical details of such devices. Just saying that new equipment has been installed would somewhat act a deterrent. Going into details how the equipment works seems to have little benefit.

    Mr bomber, now you now that you can take acetone peroxide bombs to airports where only Xray machines are used, oh and do not take a bomb to Haneda.

    No.. I believe that the machine can detect other chemicals and devices as well, and stating that it can detect that specific chemical might be a warning for potential bombers, but probably because acetone peroxide is relatively easy to obtain or very common in bomb making, probably the note is incomplete,

    "This device has the capacity to detect many chemicals and ingredients used in bombs, such as acetone peroxide, which has been used widely and recently in bomb making"

    maybe something like that would work
