Air Travel with Much Less Privacy
Starting Monday, September 27, 2004 airline passengers will be facing additional security screening before being allowed to board airplanes. The new passenger security requirements expand the discretionary authority of Transportation Security Agency personal to refer passengers for extra scrutiny, require passengers to remove jackets, and under go pat-downs when screeners consider it warranted. These pat-downs will go beyond the current limit of just arms and legs to include areas that the screeners think looks suspicious.
