This is fucking stupid. If I delete something on my phone while I’m on vacation am I going to prison because the border patrol might have wanted to look at it?

It’s bullshit but with the current laws. Back up your phone before you head home wipe it before going through border control, and restore your backup when you get home.

That’s what I do but evidently that pisses them off

Their mood isn’t your responsibility. Carrying a blank phone is perfectly legal.

isn’t shouldn’t be*
Their mood is a major determining factor in their target’s ability to stay out of prison.
Due process is dead.

“It’s SOP for my business. The risk of phones getting lost or stolen at or near airports is high.”
