The protocol for non-DefCon rooms:

* Housekeeping services the room.

* If housekeeping was unable to service the room, security will come take a look.

The protocol for DefCon rooms:

* Security comes and takes a look no matter what, and is, from reports, particularly invasive.

I don't know what's worse in that thread:

* They have to visually inspect upwards of 1000 rooms every day looking for vaguely electronic looking things

* They have to use Microsoft Teams

Poor Hilton employees...
