This was on the news this morning for all to see. If TSA has a massive hole in airport security, should this information be released to the public? Not only is our enemy simply watching our news to see what our next move is, there are also American terrorists that would try to take advantage of the hole. In some ways I do want to know if TSA is actually keeping us safer. However, I don't want the world to know that they aren't doing their jobs correctly.
Should info like this be public knowledge?

It should be public knowledge. Security theater is worse than no security. With no security you KNOW that there are risks. With security theater, you are given a false sense of security.

In my opinion, the TSA should be disbanded. The money would be much more well spent on more air marshals - who are actually trained - an surveillance of actual threats.

The enemy already knows our vulnerabilities. The Citizens need to know that the violation of their 4th amendment protections are not yielding measurable increases in security.

Simply put, what information shouldn't be Public Knowledge?

Generally speaking, the Public has a Right to know (what our Servants are doing), nearly anything they can find out, and the government has to "prove" that we shouldn't be allowed to know it.

Individuals have an expectation of privacy. Governments do not.
