A friendly reminder, this is unconstitutional if you're a us citizen. However, they can still absolutely ruin your day.

On entry to any country, I sync my devices and wipe them.

I believe that the current state of affairs is that warrantless searches of US citizens’ devices at (or near) the borders are constitutional.

This really is a shameful state of affairs that Congress should fix, but I’m not holding my breath.
