Your papers please: TSA bans ID-less flight | Surveillance State - CNET News.com
CNET reports: "In a major change of policy, the Transportation Security Administration has announced that passengers refusing to show ID will no longer be able to fly. The policy change, announced on Thursday afternoon, will go into force on June 21, and will only affect passengers who refuse to produce ID. Passengers who claim to have lost or forgotten their proof of identity will still be able to fly."

Comment: Do you agree with the CNET writer, that this is "security theater" or a prudent security measure?
