Maybe the time you spent doing it the way you used to do was not in vain at all. Security is not really something you can sell at a poor price.

If they can lower their prices, and if their business allows them to retain your money, maybe they want to target clients who are 120% cristal clear clean, because that's how most client are.

They're not bugged by that tiny percentage of people they prefer not to validate because paranoia can rule you out easily. You had the bad luck of having a bad smell even on all the paperwork you have them.

That's like calling brown people terrorists. That's not racist or mean. That's just unfortunate. Sometime security is a real bitch. That's just pickup up the pieces. That feels bad, but it's for a good cause.

I was with you right up until you tried to justify racial profiling. That's not security, that's racism.
Well security is something the US is having a lot of problems with.
"That's like calling brown people terrorists. That's not racist or mean. That's just unfortunate." - Wait what?
Well I'm not the one pushing for racist policies. that's just how the US defends itself. I'm against it, but that's the only way the US does it. Because the US is isolated from having good relations.

Now back to how corporations filter things. How would you do it ? Nobody wants to do it.
