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.
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.
What you're describing completely defeats the purpose of the inspections (trying to catch someone in the act of hacking them, somehow) and they were scheduled. Also, you have only replied to me on this post.
You seem very confused.
I believe you're the one who's confused. No one is walking in on you to catch you in the act. The article clearly states this is just inspections and going through the room.
Putting a do not disturb is only ignored if you're not in the room, they're still gonna knock.
Id love to see where they're busting in on your ass, show me the people they've done and ill admit I'm confused. So far it just sounds like an overinvasive form of what they already did when they cleaned the room while you may still be staying* there.
I'd be down
