"So began a day of confusion and fear, followed by several years of
indignation, frustration, and litigation, as we struggled to find out why — as
the agent’s supervisor soon informed us with a similarly strange look on her
face — we’d both “turned up on the FBI’s no-fly list.” Her eyes grew wide as
she looked us over. “I don’t understand it,” she said. “You don’t fit the
profile.”"
In the US, everyone has lost freedoms. But they're generally more concerned
about "freedom to" than "freedom from", which is one reason the latter are
ill-protected.
