They do check for it. I've seen people pulled aside with their phone getting inspected, presumably when TSA sees a something resembling a 7 in the scanner. (They probably know what to look for)

Are you sure that's what they were checking? They've randomly pulled people aside and swabbed electronics for years so it may just be that.

They explicity asked, and then manually inspected. (I was in the line for getting electronics swabbed so I could see)
