Had a look at what has happened to the use of MTIP 'strip search' #stopsearch powers on under-18s by the Met. This first chart shows the trend relative to the early part of 2019 (e.g. 120 = up 20%). Key message: use has been consistently falling since early 2021.

Counterpoint: no, it won't. The correct analogy is with cars in the mid-20th century. They spread rapidly, were used foolishly, and were associated with much suffering. Then they were regulated, and social norms emerged around their use that made them safer.
