Autoboot macbook air 2023 M2 chip

Is there a way to turn off autoboot/autostartup on the macbook air 2023 M2, or any key command that can completely shut the device down until the power button is pressed?

MacBook Air 15″, macOS 13.4

No.


There is no TSA requirement to demonstrate a computer is powered down. They may ask you to power it on, which as you know happens if you open its lid. The idea is to demonstrate it's actually what it appears to be.


However, local TSA administrators can be as arbitrary and capricious as they choose to be. They just won't be able to provide any reference, publication, or document justifying their actions. File a complaint and you'll hear back from them in a few years... maybe.


If it's local airport security they'll be even more clueless.
