No, the problem with the TSA is that they exist in the first place. Airlines should be responsible for ensuring their flights are safe. When airlines handle safety they can be held accountable if they do it poorly or they mistreat their customers. The TSA can clearly never be held accountable for anything.
It is amusing that they think that Feds will not attend because they are "not allowed". It is foolish to be divisive in this way. The "Feds" likely make a useful contribution to the conference.
Biometrics are good for surveillance but not for authentication. A good authentication method supports revocation of an identification key, such as would be needed in the event of its compromise. It should not be trusted as a factor in authentication either, for the same reason. Great for theater though I suppose.

lol. Of course they realize it, that is the point. The point is to control "the message" and the people.
