How could it be detected? As I said, every action of the rogue TSO can be seen as working within the rules. Unless the rogue is stupid enough to admit the real reasons for his actions, they can get away with violating TSA policies.

Because if I didn't take pains to state that this was a hypothetical, there are some here (not necessarily you) who would accuse me of rumor-mongering, or making accusations without evidence, or the like. Part of being proactive is trying to find flaws in the system
before they occur ... which is, inherently, going to involve hypothetical arguments.
I seem to recall on this forum someone speculating a year ago about what would happen if someone hypothetically tried to smuggle explosives in his underwear. Gee, I'm glad that ridiculous hypothetical never came to pass.
