CAPPS’ EVIL STEPBROTHER

The eerily inva­sive passenger-​​screening pro­gram CAPPS II may be dead, “but its evil step­brother, ‘Secure Flight,’ will live if we don’t com­plain loudly enough,” says Defense Tech pal Bill Scannell. “If some­thing isn’t done soon, the pas­sen­ger records of over 54 mil­lion Americans will be handed-​​over to the [Homeland Security Department] by the air­lines. The time to file your com­ments is now. We’ve built an inter­face that links directly into the ‘Secure Flight’ com­ments data­base. The Bill of Rights you save may be your own.
