Do it. Passengers should put up a lot of resistance to this disgusting harassment. Make them change their gloves, even if they claim their gloves are new. They don't trust you, why should you trust them? If you can save even one person from this sick and unnecessary harassment, then such tactics are worth it.
Who knows, maybe the screeners will see how disgusted the passengers are and quit this un-American agency?
