I agree it doesn't address the highest-level problem, but some flyers may be able to address their personal problem by using this TSA statement against overzealous screeners and supervisors who insist a palm grope of the breast/genitals or forced strip-down-to-undergarmets is permitted SOP.

We all know these things have happened in some cases, and stopping or making loud on-the-spot complaints about these abuses that go beyond what even TSA policy allows is at least one small step.
