After January 2008, I will no longer be an airline customer. Not until the TSA’s Secure Flight program is repealed or abandoned. Essentially, the program requires all passengers, including U.S. citizens, to receive the permission and approval of the executive branch of the federal government before they can be issued a boarding pass.

It’s a clear Fourth Amendment violation on its face, though I don’t expect that to interfere with the gross invasion of privacy. At the very least, the system needs a data security system enacted as well as a process for addressing grievances, neither of which seem to be forthcoming.
