I wonder instead of costing the airlines money, the next person to opt out of both gawk and grope should refuse to ask the airline for a refund.
"I won't ask/allow the airline to unilaterally cancel my contract because TSA can't comply with the 4th amendment!" and watch them flip out. If there truly is loss of property, there is an actual harm. How much would you bet they try to force a refund on you? It shows up magically on your credit card?
