Thanks.

Encephalogram lie detectors for dogs, as they roam the airport. Each day begets a new, ever more interesting layer of futuristic hell.

Joke's on you. That widget never gets logged. It's a placebo.

More likely, duration of stay, IP and cookies cross-referenced from other sources are the only things they look at.
