          1. The average person is quite careless.

          2. Depending how how suspicious they get, they might sometimes plug in your phone into a computer and copy everything, there might be traces left behind when you “delete” something.

          3. Government policies/procedures don’t always make sense. (Example: The USA’s TSA misses most prohibited items at airports, including weapons)

          4. Or may its a way to psychologically intimidate people into not doing any act of dissent.
