I was wondering about this. From what I hear it's basically impossible to get a name removed from this watchlist, so short of actually legally changing your name there's basically nothing you can do!?

It's something that was fought around the implementation of the Patriot act, but still needs to be fought. The lack of transparency or ability to easily ask for redress or correction of problems is a significant withholding of due process for many suspects (not convicted or charged) who basically have quasi-warrants out on them by being on the list. Checking the list via facial recognition adds extra dimensions to the problem, but is the same core problem.
