If we're speculating, a much more likely explanation is that Snapchat moderation teams monitor certain words in certain areas, flagging for example any message containing "bomb" sent from an airport.
This is arguably even creepier than government surveillance, since it implies Snapchat employees are looking at the content of private chats and the user may never know.
