I just bought a TSA-approved luggage lock at Target. When I opened it, I discovered a warning on the package that the lock contains a chemical known to cause cancer and birth defects. Wash hands after using.

What could be in a LOCK that is so dangerous that you can’t touch it?

Sort of makes it seem unfit for use. Why would they sell that?
