"TSA-Approved" Locks
๐คฃ
It give TSA a special key to unlock these locks.
Oh this key is soooo special that its available on amazon to buy as a special present to your fellow theives.
They are worse than no lock.
At least with no lock, someone breaking into your luggage and planting drugs, you have plausable deniability.
With a TSA-Approved lock, someone could use the TSA Key to open the lock and plant the drugs, then relock and frame you for the drugs. And since its locked, its not gonna be easy to convince the TSA and courts that someone else had acccess and framed you.
Just a get a real non-tsa lock lol.
It comforts me to know I can buy a key for my TSA-Approved lock if I forget the combination.
Or you know, just guess every combination...
If you guess 2 codes per second, you can unlock a 3 digit code lock in like 9 minutes
Also, pretty much all suitcases with zippers can be trivially opened with a pen, locked or otherwise.
