There Should Not Be An App For That

Join the TSA from your very own iThing

“Who knew airport security could be this much fun!”

I’ll ignore the obvious issues with the lack of an eroteme at the end of that sentence, and instead focus on its sentiment. I’m fairly confident that I do not, nor will ever know a level of interaction with airport security that could be construed as ‘fun’. But lo and behold, Airport Scanner appears to be changing that for the United States and 16 other countries.

“PROTECT THE SKIES – JOIN THE TSA 
Airport Scanner puts you in charge of operating a life like X-RAY scanner working for the TSA. Mark illegal items, expedite flight crew + first class passengers and look out for air marshals all while getting every flight out on time so passengers don’t riot!

Look, I’m sure the prospect of being a personal space invading pervert in a rent-a-cop uniform is something that appeals to at least a small subset of the population, but really this one just creeps me out. There is no need to get excited enough about airport security systems to warrant building an iPhone game. Naturally, I blame AirportAir Crash Investigations and Border Security, along with our own resident planesperger Sabine.
