The Nazis literally did this with a law. They made it illegal to be critical of the party. Fuck the alarm, we've already been had.

How’d they get into his phone? Face or fingerprint?
Make sure you turn off biometrics before traveling. They can’t force you to disclose a passcode.

Haha, I'll never get into the USA. Trump is a snowflake melted on a turd and he can fuck a melon.

I was looking for this as well. It seems like a rather important piece of info for the article to leave out.

IIRC they can compel you to unlock your phone. Or just deny you entry if you don't. It's best to make sure you travel with a 'clean' phone and PC, border patrol got ridiculous powers in the patriot act and nobody's ever rolled any of it back despite decades of abuses.

Funny that the US has become more like Russia since Trump was elected.

Get a burner for ANY international travel.
Consider it an insurance expense as a part of the trip.

It's "voluntary" in the sense that either you allow it or you don't get into the country.

Was that explicitly said to him? Did they tell him that if he refused the inspection that he would be denied entry?
Not that you are potentially wrong, but I'm not looking for assumptions pulled out of orifices.

If you have an android device, setup a second user account with nothing on it and use that when going through customs.
