    Answer “yes” and a trap door is activated and you are sent directly to Guantanamo Bay for further processing by “Big Bob” and his cock meat sandwich.

      Realistically, probably the same thing as what happens at self-checkout lines with idiotic anti-theft checks:

      A beacon above the kiosk turns on, an attendant walks over and, without a word, flashes a badge at the machine to override the system lockout as they roll their eyes: this is only the hundredth time today someone accidentally pressed the wrong button, because what kind of terrorist would voluntarily press “yes”.

        An honest terrorist. There is a lot of terrotists out there, there is a chance that at least one of them doesnt lie.

        Except that they take shit very seriously at airports. Try jokingly saying that you’ve got a bomb while they’re checking your luggage, they’ll take you away for a few hours.

    I had my wallet stolen while on vacation once, then had to show up at the airport to go home without any ID. They sent me through what I can only assume is the terrorist line. Sure, they opened up my bag, went though everything, and swabbed everything to look for bomb residue or something, but it was actually a lot faster and easier than waiting in the normal line. It made me think about flying without ID all the time.

    I asked my girlfriend who works in aviation security auditing I asked her what would happen and she said “you wouldn’t be allowed in” as it’s part of a visa questionnaire.

    My guess is that the button doesn’t do anything by itself, but is used to see if it triggers any abnormal behavior
