My bet is that some people are just outright telling gate agents that they aren't taking the flight. People tend to provide more information than they really need to. Now corporate is telling the gate agents to send up suspicious behaviors, whereas in the past it might of gone unreported. Not sure how likely a gate agent would be to really focus on this, as they have a lot going on and the last thing on their mind is tracking down violators.
