Exclamation Request Your Secret TSA Dossier

The Electronic Frontier Foundation has set-up an easy way for people to find out what the TSA has secretly collected on them as part of the test of the Secure Flight program.

From the EFF:
Just what did the Transportation Security Administration
(TSA) do with the more than 100 million personal data
records it obtained while testing the Secure Flight air
travel monitoring system? And whose personal travel
records - including name, birth date, phone number,
mailing address, itinerary, and credit card information
- did TSA rifle through?
Don't let TSA continue to abuse the public's trust: request your file today.

I'll second that without hesitation. Transparency is liberty's friend.

What scares me about asking for my file is that they might start another file on me just because I asked.

I thought about that, but said screw it and will be sending my request off on Monday. Certified mail, return receipt requested.
