Airport screeners recording what you read?

Date September 20, 2007

This article from Wired indicates that some airport screeners are keeping notes on passengers, down to what you’re reading.  I don’t get the impression that it’s being done for every single passenger all the time, but it’s still frightening nonetheless.  I flew a lot in August, and anticipate flying a lot more in the coming months, and this makes me both nervous and angry.  Is it too cliche to bring up 1984?
