Illicit Boarding Passes
WaPo –
Christopher Soghoian said he was simply trying to highlight a flaw in the nation’s airline security procedures when he put a tool on his Web site letting anyone create fake boarding passes, but federal authorities didn’t see it that way.
FBI agents visited the 24-year-old doctoral candidate’s home in Bloomington, Ind., Friday and returned on Saturday to cart off his computers and other equipment. While Soghoian has not been charged with a crime, the incident has stirred a national tempest and renewed concerns about passenger screening procedures
