CBP utilizes TSA checkpoints and on ports-of-entry they co-locate with TSA personnel, and both agencies have their policies set from the top-down. Presumably TSA is also the recipient organization for some of that data. But that all being said, I did not write the headline for the piece.

Not that I’m any huge fan of TSA, but I fail to see either in your guest column or the corresponding link to the ACLU web site where TSA has anything to do with the electronic data seizures. Customs & Border Patrol (CBP), another equally mismanaged and misguided organization under the Homeland Security umbrella, is not TSA.
