As the self-proclaimed first person to file legal action over this, I'm sure he was already on a few lists, right?


Actually not on any list yet. I'm always surprised when I successfully print a boarding pass and it does not have the dreaded "SSSS" on it.


You joke, but it is seriously likely to be that easy to beat SSSS. Bruce Schneier has done a lot of work on fake boarding passes, if you're interested.


God forbid you have to copy the boarding pass while covering the SSSS with a white piece of paper =)

Kidding; I've gotten the SSSS before. No fun at all.


Or paste this in your browser to fix it before printing.
