I was flying to NYC last week and tried to check in online. I wasn't able to and when I got to the airport, I was told I was o the government watch list. I'll admit that I am an outspoken citizen to our current administration, but have never published anything like that. I ask how I got there, and they said, well someone with your name was probably put on the list, so now anyone with that name is also on the list. A quick google search turned up with 2 million hits with my name. Going through security I get pulled out searched, bomb wiped down, and my traveling partner as well. On the way home, same story. I asked how to get removed from the list, and I was told there is no way. Thanks to the ridiculous of our current system, I will never be able to check in online for a flight again. I am really glad they are doing their job well, and keeping terrorists like me from electronically checking in.
