This is absolutely ridiculous. Imagine some fuckers just coming into your room while you’re with your SO making love or something.

Not to mention the metal hook lock on most room doors I’ve seen that can prevent anyone from entering while you’re still inside.

Every hotel with those has a tool they can use to easily unlatch that lock.

I mean if you’re in the room you can atleast stop them from doing that rather easily.

I mean sure if you wedge the door or something, but then you’re just going to get kicked out.

Or you just walk up to the person and say “Hey. I’m in here…”

Did you even read the article?

Yeah, no where did it say they will walk in on your ass having sex. Maybe you should actually read the article.

I’d be down

When did I say anything about anyone having sex? What?

They’re doing visual inspections of rooms because they don’t trust the scary hacker people in them. What do you think telling them you’re in the room is going to accomplish?

They will come by at a later time. The OP i responded to was making it sound like they will bust in while you are there. I am only saying no, they’ll do it when you’re not in the room, as most hotels will do already.
