He's within his rights to do so. And he's also within his rights to offer (IMHO) snarky commentary to the TSOs while he does it.

But I find it just a bit curious that he always encounters exactly the same TSO every time he enters that particular checkpoint. We've heard that TSOs rotate positions from time to time. Gee, why do we only see videos of this one TSO? Why is the videographer so interested in seeing that this one specific TSO learns how to tolerate his videotaping? Why aren't we seeing any videos of him with other TSOs ... presumably, there are a few TSOs who aren't giving him a hassle about this?

Again ... he's completely within his rights to do what he's doing. That doesn't make him a national hero.
