Seriously, the trend in getting through airports faster is moving from being elite to allowing Customs and Border people to do a background check on you, in exchange for granting you the ability to move through stuff faster (Global Entry, PreCheck, etc). But "background check" could involve talking to one or more of those people you told that to! And if they believed it?
