I really don't expect anyone to reign in the TSA. ExtortionCheck has worked like a charm so those most likely to get in their faces will never experience this.
That is why I said up thread that if you think you have been assaulted, sexually or otherwise, by a TSA employee then summon a police officer and file a complaint. That is the only way this will get the attention needed. And it is not the LEO's job to adjudicate the issue should you get one that doesn't want to take your complaint.

Just because TSA says their SOP's allows for this kind of search doesn't make it right or legal. Our only protection will be found in the courts.
