I have a hard time believing this.

1) The United 'big board' doesn't display full names - For Mickey Mouse it would display MOU, M:



Hard to believe that's a privacy issue...?

2) Even if it is, how can displaying the seating map at the gate impact privacy? I can view it in the AC app (in a convoluted fashion if I attempt to check-in again) so how can displaying it at the gate be a privacy issue?
