    From the article:

    The U.S. government has long claimed it can search and seize people’s devices without a search warrant or court order until they are permitted entry to the United States.

    I'm not saying any of this is okay. It's startling how little Americans know about what absurd things the US gov does within the existing legal framework. It isn't new.
