Some work better than others, and well&#8230; some just don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t work at all. What am I getting at? I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m getting at the products folks have created that are designed to shield private areas of passengers going through our Advanced Imaging Technology (AIT).<\/p>\n<p>Remember the post (Message In a Carry-On) about the artist who designs metal plates for baggage with messages that appear on the X-ray monitor? This is very similar to that. If there is something shielding an area and we don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t know what\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s under it, we have to conduct a pat-down.<\/p>\n<p>So basically, passengers should be aware that the use of these types of products will likely result in a pat-down. Some might think this is TSA\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s way of getting back at clever passengers. That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not the case at all. It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s just security.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re certainly not going to tell you what you should or shouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t buy or wear, but I feel it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s only fair to give you a heads up on your choice of attire.<\/p>\n<p>Blogger Bob<br \/>\nTSA Blog Team<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.tsa.gov\/2011\/01\/friendly-suggestion-on-products.html\">http:\/\/blog.tsa.gov\/2011\/01\/friendly-suggestion-on-products.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/?attachment_id=53\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-53\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/tsafree1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"tsafree1\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-53\" srcset=\"https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/tsafree1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/tsafree1-188x141.jpg 188w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>the tsa has been chocking up abuses left and right, but this is a new one. the tsa blog tells people that if they limit [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-52","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=52"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=52"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=52"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/darkmarkisnotart.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=52"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
