From an article about issues with travelers mistakenly added to the Transportation Security Administration’s (TSA’s) No-Fly list: “More than 2,000 people have complained to the Transportation Security Administration. Airlines, at one point, were calling the agency at least 30 times a day to say that they had stopped a passenger whose name was similar to one on the list but after further investigation was determined not to be a terror suspect, according to a TSA memo.”
