The NY Times has very low credibility but I assume this is true. Are we allowed to refuse to log into devices that are powered off?
US Immigration searched a French Scientist's phone, and found criticism of Donald Trump.
So they rejected him from entry at the airport/border, and labeled his private messages terrorism!
Why are they even searching people's phones at the border? Your legal entry should be based on a passport, and NOT on your social media or private messages!
