For those that can't watch the video: these days a 2-4 minute x-ray scan
can reveal practically anything beneath a person's clothes.... imagine
what the situation in 2060 is going to be, then (seems those x-ray
glasses of days begone might actually be coming true).
My guess is that something along these lines would practically make it
impossible to carry any weapon not inserted into cyberware into a
decently-guarded building, though of course concealed holsters in the
2060's might be made of something that makes the holster+weapon show up
as part of the flesh.... or the weapons are made of materials that don't
show up on an x-ray scan... or..or..whatever.
