I dont believe that there are even 1 million disparagers out there.
From your very own Blogger Bob:
You may have read about TSA implementing enhanced pat downs as part of our layered approach to security. .....

Passengers who opt out of enhanced screening such as advanced imaging technology will receive an equivalent level of screening to include a thorough pat-down. Remember, you can always request to be screened in a private area.
From the TSA website:

If a passenger cannot or chooses not to be screened by imaging technology or a walk-through metal detector, the passenger will be screened using a thorough patdown procedure instead.

November 2010 enhanced screening procedures[edit source | editbeta]
Beginning in November 2010, TSA added new enhanced screening procedures. Passengers are required to choose between an enhanced patdown, allowing TSOs to more thoroughly check areas on the body such as waistbands, groin, and inner thigh.[38] or instead to be imaged by the use of a full body scanners (that is, either backscatter X-ray or millimeter wave detection machines) in order to fly.
If you think that fewer than a million TSA "disparagers" out there, then I have either a bridge or ocean front property in Arizona to offer to you.
