They say it's to prevent crime. Same as a lot of the awful things we come to expect. I'm willing to bet it doesn't do anything noticeable with respect to crime.
I, too, commit most of my crimes from inside of a public toilet.
Hahaha. I think when they say crimes, I think they mean doing drugs and having sex. So largely nothing actually harmful unless the person passes out.
It's to prevent the expectation of privacy. We've all been trained to accept that we are being spied on, even when we shit.
