Thought the same. Can't they just do NSA-like bulk collection and search, like US does with Xkeyscore? Once you automate it, no need to search phones one by one.

I bet airport security could be sped up too. A stranger sticking their thumbs down your waistband sends very strong message. The more you automate, the less personal the experience becomes.
