The Legal Purgatory at the US Border: Detained, Searched, and Interrogated
An anonymous reader writes "America may be the land of the free, but upon arrival millions of visitors cross a legal purgatory at the U.S. border. It is an international legal phenomenon that is left much to the discretion of host countries. In some cases, this space between offers travelers far fewer rights than some of the least democratic and free countries on Earth. Limited access to legal counsel, unwarranted searches, and questionable rights to free speech to name a few. One of the more controversial — and yet still legally a contested grey area — are the rights travelers have in regards to electronics and device searches."
And then you'll be locked up for obstruction while being labeled a terrorist.
You know up front what the rules are, don't like them, don't visit.
If you don't know the rules, you should have done your homework and you are a moron, and we don't want you to visit.

It has nothing to do with being childish. The fact that you don't know that you can hand over a key, and they will be able to mount a partition but still not get your protected data, and still not be able to prove they don't have your data or even know if they don't have your data, tells me that you have no idea how Truecrypt works.

Moron. You're still in High School, right? Because you talk like you're 15.
If you want news from today, you have to come back tomorrow.
