The truth is you are not a guest but a customer.

There are pictures in the thread you didn’t bother reading. They are mostly looking for network equipment and usb appliance left plugged where they shouldn’t be. Both things clearly prohibited by the hotel ToS.

In the US? There are several countries where that would be illegal.

Apparently you need to be logged into X to see this. I did not see any thread under the post (a good reminder to use proper language when pointing such things out, the other person might not have seen there there is a thread).

Regardless, I am not a user of X so I won't be able to see the thread. Thanks for inlightening with some examples!

Thank you for pointing that I do indeed know the guideline. Note that I’m not being snarky in my comment about reading the thread. I do know it wasn’t read - it’s obvious from the comment - which makes commenting on it a complete waste of time, an issue I encounter more and more often here.
