If you wrote to Jet Blue yesterday to express your disappointment with the airline's unpatriotic cooperation with the Feds in piloting the CAPPS II spyware initiative, you probably got an official denial telling you that "No JetBlue customer information has been shared with the US Government with respect to testing the CAPPS II program currently under design."
Bill Scannell, the guy who outed both Delta and Jet Blue for particpating in CAPPS II, has the smoking gun on this — a document showing that:
In September of 2002, JetBlue Airways secretly gave the Transportation Security Administration the full travel records of 5 million JetBlue customers. This sensitive travel data was then turned-over to a private security contractor for analysis, the results of which were presented at a security conference earlier this year and then posted on the Internet.
Check out the damning link for more — the Jet Blue statement is technically correct, but only because of weasel-words inserted to elide the fact that they are enthusiastic collaborators with those who would undermine the Constitution to "fight terrorism."
