Didn’t HAVE to go to a public place to print the pass and draw attention to himself by talking to a camera. Didn’t HAVE to put “international baddie”. But he did and they still didn’t catch on.

    I think that the international security expo shouldn’t sell tickets. You MUST break in. All the infrastructure is there for a normal convention, but you just cannot access the tickets by buying them. You have to hack, cheat, copy, steal, whatever to get past security (who are trained as if it’s a normal expo)
    You can tell how good security is by how many people show up

      That’s also how you can get better seats on a plane. Board towards the end and just take whatever seat you want in the general section you booked (economy, buisness, etc) and if nobody tries to sit down in that seat, you get to keep it. If someone does, you can just say oh, this is 34A? Sorry, I thought it was 34D and then you just go to your actual seat. Since nobody actually checks your in the right seat as long as there’s no issues with someone else trying to sit in that seat, it’s not hard to sit in a different one
