: I've been traveling a lot this summer and I have noticed that the TSA is : inspecting my checked bags about 50% of the time. I know because they : leave a nice calling card in my bags each time they open them up. I'm : not sure what they are so interested in, but it might be related to the : fact that I'm on some sort of terrorist watch list. : : I am kind of interested in what the TSA is doing with my bags in the : back room. Does anyone have any suggestion for some kind of cheapo : video camera that I can place in my bag in order to catch all of the : action? A few months back, there was a video floating around of a camera that was placed in a package and sent via US mail. If you can find the details of that, it may provide a good lead. As for the spot checks, I get them about 50% of the time. If you were on a watch list, i'd imagine you would get them all the time and be questioned heavily before passing the screening check. Do you travel with any computer equipment in your luggage? When I have a keyboard, mouse, laptop power supply and other hardware, I tend to see the TSA cards. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
