“Compared to NSA’s confiscation of U.S. citizens’ phone records, however, Americans can take some comfort that TSA’s PreCheck program is voluntary—at least for now. Yet in the past, government experimentation has oft become permanent policy, which, in this case, would then require every American to undergo fingerprinting and a background check to be eligible to fly commercially. In other words, as government’s thirst for security mounts, its ‘no-fly’ list, which includes names of suspected terrorists, could eventually be replaced by an ‘OK to fly’ list. Do you think this scenario is outlandish and would never happen?”
