How do you opt out of this? I was in the normal security line when I last traveled and they took a picture/scan
Discussion
Before you approach, say “I’ll be opting out” calmly, but confidently. They’ll visually compare your face to your ID. Done.
Oooo interesting.
In US TSA you just calmly ask the officer for an alternative screening method, i.e., a human to check your ID. They then probably explain the Official Story that is on the signs, about not storing your picture etc. You confirm you understand and you still want an alternative method.
