I was the unlucky recipient of an SSSS today (Delta.com issued my ticket without my middle name for some reason), and the message I received on the web site was "Government regulations require that you check in at the airport". The block occurred at the beginning of the process, though, so I wasn't asked the usual questions about baggage and seating.
The mobile app gave me a much more generic message, though, that didn't mention government interference.
