Even so, the TSA's master key leak doesn't exactly
represent a critical security crisis, argues University of
Pennsylvania computer science professor and noted lock picker
Matt Blaze. The TSA-approved luggage locks were never very high
security devices to begin with. "I'm not sure anyone relied on
these kinds of locks for serious security purposes," he says. "I
find it's actually quicker to pick the TSA's locks than to look
for my key sometimes."

They weren't *leaked*. They were *openly* published by a mainstream
media source!
