Not very good reporting.

They can take your phone and image it, but if the phone is off and encrypted, they can't see shit.

They still can't force you to decrypt the device. Make sure you turn it off and use a strong passphrase (not biometrics).

One more excuse to get out of travelling there!

They've held that border exception for a long time, 100 miles I think it was. I believe it was always meant to be actually crossing a border but in theory they've held it applying to anyone in the area.

As a general practice if crossing the US border, save everything before arriving to a cloud host you trust, wipe it clean, and re-download after.

and the dumpster fire that is the USA flames on!

No search can be done if no phone exists but better yet to not go there.

Oh my goodness gotta cross border with burner phones now. What a horror dystopia and completely anti American. Well I guess is mask off time with the fascists. The federal government has antagonized everyone from other countries to its own states.

The end of this overreach can only be achieved by class solidarity hope we succeed
