Comment on Uncharged phones, laptops to be banned on US-bound flights

Comments

Wouldn't this be in relation to scanning/reading data on the devices rather than explosives? Having to charge a phone or laptop would increase time taken for processing as you'll need to charge the item momentarily whilst you interface with it.. I highly doubt they open up phones/laptops to connect directly to the HDD..
