Came through DTW today. Sign at TSA checkpoint said all electronics larger than cellphone need to be removed from bags and put into bins. I ignored it and kept my portable wifi router and other non-laptop electronics in my bag (spoiler: TSA did not flag them). However, TSA was VERY FOCUSED on books and food/snacks. My books had to be hand-inspected (not swabbed, surprisingly) and other people's bags of chips, containers of nuts, and candy bars had to be swabbed and rerun through the X-ray scanner.
Boy, flights from DTW today are REALLY safe..... what a joke.
TSA has never met a threat they didn't like but must keep inventing threats in order to seem relevant and survive. It’s fixated on so many "threats" that they actually make it easier for any bad actors. 80% failure rate in testing is proof of that.
