Security Theater

“Since 9/11, approximately three things have potentially improved airline security: reinforcing the cockpit doors, passengers realizing they have to fight back and — possibly — sky marshals. Everything else — all the security measures that affect privacy — is just security theater and a waste of effort.” Bruce Schneier on Security vs. Privacy 

Bruce wrote Beyond Fear: Thinking Sensibly About Security (an excellent book!)
