Upping the Ante: TSA to Start Putting Its Hands Down Your Pants
This is indeed "security theater," but a special kind of security theater. TSA stand-abouts want to continue just standing around (BTW, does anyone really believe they're looking terribly hard at the x-ray imaging of your luggage?), and they don't like people opting out of the naked-body-scanners, because that forces them to not stand-about but do some actual work.
So they're attempting to make that as invasive as possible -- and let people know how invasive it's going to be -- to get you to walk through the body imager. So they can stand about some more.
