Still, it's forced some onerous security measures into effect - like, no bathroom visits for an hour before landing? That's going to make for some miserable passengers.

Eventually we'll reach the point where anyone travelling on a plane will be forced to strip and surrender all clothing, then don airline-issued paper garments after submitting to a full body cavity search (or a full body scan), before boarding the plane. Disembarking would be equally unpleasant.

And even then, some clever freedom fighter (or, more likely, his or her handlers) will come up with a way to ingest the damned bomb and carry a surgically implanted remote for it.
