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

How fucking stupid.

“Resorts World Las Vegas is dedicated at all times to ensuring a safe, secure, and comfortable environment for all of our valued guests,” the statement begins. 

Resorts World said the latest policy was established “in light of recent events in Las Vegas, and the increasing ransomware threats to casinos and hotels on the Strip,”

Hard to see this absurd invasion of privacy as being for anything but that last bit. Hope this results in significantly fewer guests, but it feels like the vote-with-your-wallet part of capitalism stopped working some time ago.

The ransomware threat is coming from INSIDE THE HOTEL!

I wouldn't be surprised if somebody does end up pwning them with a ransomware out of spite.

Thank you for your service, good sir.

This is the proper take here, IMHO
