You know, that almost has to be a pure coincidence, since the machines that are used as airport screening devices use X-rays, which aren't anywhere near energetic enough to damage things like hardware electronics, much less even fog typical camera film. Unless Stansted is using some kind of new screening device with a different sort of technology, the typical X-ray scanner doesn't have any kind of strong magnets in it, but even if it did, it wouldn't be likely to damage electronic gadgetry like an e-book, or everyone putting a laptop through it would have their drives wiped.
