Unfortunately people would never read in the news that a potential or active terrorist courier was deterred from transferring sensitive information to local cell by this policy. Joke aside, efficiency of this policy would be very hard to prove, that would be akin to attempting to prove efficiency of a fire department, or teaching curriculum. Also don't get me wrong, I would really hate to be at the receiving end of this policy that has "abuse of power" written all over it. And like to know where would the search impede onto the privacy to the individual, and protect our dignity as human.
