It saddens me to know that Millennials and younger have never known airports as the places of fearless excitement and discovery they use to be. No constant, droning, vacuous warnings. No endless queues in wait for invasive scanning or groping. No panopticon.
I refuse to accept this or worse for my son. We will starve the beast. We will bring it to heel.
It’s #Bitcoin or tyranny.
Fearless excitement? I don't remember them ever being that.

Maybe I’m older. I absolutely do.
I remember airports as exciting. It was the first stop on an adventure - variety of people and languages and shops. It also felt safe.

Exactly this.
I'm 44. But then again I didn't do a lot of traveling when I was younger.
