Put a picture of yourself in the phone holding a sign saying "If I'm not the person with this phone, HELP, I think I'm missing/kidnapped/robbed (circle applicable)."
this is so stupid, its retarded , sorry if i offended someone, which terrorist ,( i hope thats what they are looking for), has compromising info in his phone, the stupidity from the TSA and the Border patrol is unbridled
Can you see a black helicopter hovering over your home ? that's me! We need to talk!
Who actually believes a terrorist will be carrying a smartphone with them when they try to enter the USA that can identify them as a terrorist? This is just exploitation of the ability to harass US citizens that belong to a class that Big Brother doesn't like.
Sigh... LEOs don't have the "right" to perform any of their official duties - they have the [italics]authority[italics off].
I was just commenting on this somewhere else yesterday. Take a look at the many versions of Border Security: xxx on Netflix. CBP agents routinely search bags, cars, cell phones, even your person if it comes to that. If you have undeclared cash over $10,000 and cannot prove where it came from they seize it and fine you. Law is much different at border crossings.
