Well, well, a positive piece of news on the TSA Blog. No surprise that it was rogue TSA stations that were implementing an unofficial policy of all electronics out. Of course when the standard response when questioned on a policy is, "it's SSI", this crap can take place.
After some calls to our airports, we learned that this exercise was set up by local TSA offices and was not part of any grand plan across the country. These practices were stopped on Monday afternoon and blackberrys, cords and iPods began to flow through checkpoints like the booze was flowing on Bourbon Street Tuesday night.
