This is probably a fine strategy if you are a citizen and don't mind being held in secondary for a bit.

This is terrible advice to foreigners who may be denied entry, and then have that denial seen as prejudicial in trying to enter the country again.

I'm a foreigner (German) and I would have no problem doing so. I know no other country where they copy their phone and I also don't want to give this special rights even to USA.
