> But does it mean you’ll get moved to a slow line, get an extra pat down, or a mark on your record? “You should have no derogatory experience based on you exercising your right,” said Lim. If you suspect that has happened, the TSA says you should ask to speak to a manager.
I have to assume that this is a joke. If you speak to a manager, you'll be subjected to more bureaucratic abuse and risk missing your flight, just to have your concerns dismissed because there is no enforcement mechanism.
- musicale 4y agoTSA already punishes travelers who try to opt out of body scanning. In addition to subjecting them to intrusive patdowns, often in public (for those who don't want to risk a special "private screening") they will typically suspend scanning temporarily and make the opt-out people wait as they let others go ahead through a simple metal detector. This may be an easy way for bad actors to help their accomplices avoid body scans.
