Came here to say this. It's like taking a note out of your own pocket and ripping it up. What's actually the criminal offence?
The police just want to go on a fishing expedition on your data. Just try kicking in the doors of their house to do the same thing.
It's definitely an unlawful search though right? I mean what crime are they looking for they can't just say they have some suspicion in order to dig through someone's personal life, that's unacceptable
Unfortunately in the US, it is legal for border searches.
Thank our corrupt supreme Court
What a shame those bastards got to play dirty and get those seats and start all this garbage and they just let it happen, Citizen's United totally steamrolls all of representational democracy
Unlawful, unfortunately no. Immoral, certainly
No crossing at a boarder you have no rights. And if you're a non citizen you have even less rights.
That's happening.
