So, what happens if you get approached by a "chatty" government cronie/thug/molester/porn-screener/"dutiful-employee" and you respond by asking him to tell you where he derives the constitutional authority to break the 4th Amendment? Is that considered trouble?

How about if you just keep your Ipod playing as he talks to you?

How about you pretend you're hard of hearing, just to piss him off?

Chances are, you're gonna have a problem.

In the competitive free market, problems lead to consumer dissatisfaction, which leads to lower profits or higher losses, which lead to changes in business models. Security agencies balance customer preferences for security with their interests in privacy and convenience. Insurance companies require levels of security for airlines to get off the ground. All of it happens without top-down bureaucrats calling shots regardless of customer response.

Free people could decide what they prefered.

Right now, Mr. Pistole decides what you prefer. Enjoy the "chat".
