TSA Protects Privacy of Employee Who Violated Traveler’s Privacy

Thursday, October 27th, 2011

Yesterday, we learned from the TSA blog that the employee who left the “get your freak on” note in the bag of a woman who was traveling with a vibrator was removed from the screening process, and that appropriate disciplinary action has been initiated.”

How do we know the disciplinary action was appropriate? Well, because the TSA says it was. You’ll have to take their word for it, because they aren’t going to tell us what that discipline was. We also won’t get to know the TSA employee’s identity.

This is pretty much par for the course at the agency. They never release the names of employees who violate policy, harass travelers, or, while they’re doing all that, let bombs and guns slip through screening during competency tests. I guess it’s good to know that while the agency is busy feeling us up, scanning or bodies, and digging through our bags, they do at least take someone’s privacy seriously.

They can't give the identity due to labor relations regulations. But they COULD tell the penalty.

Privacy is reserved for the government...not its subjects. :rolleyes:

To be fair, the toy did resemble a bullet.

Understand, so you flag the bag or dispose of it.

Not put it back with a kinky note to the woman who owns it, written on a TSA flyer.

A .50 cal or 120 mm shell? :D

Fair enough. Or at least leave your name and phone number with the note.
