@cybersecuritygirl: They can search your phone at the border. No warrant. No reason. 📱 On Sept 17, a federal appeals court ruled manual phone searches at the border are “routine”: like searching luggage. Your photos, texts, banking apps, DMs: all of it, for no reason at all. Before you travel: 1. Back up + travel light: remove banking apps, sensitive photos, files you don’t need 2. Turn OFF Face ID/fingerprint: use a strong passcode (stronger legal protection) 3. Log out of email, banking, social DMs before customs 4. Know the tradeoff: you can refuse, but they can seize your phone: non-citizens can be denied entry Follow @cybersecuritygirl for daily tips to keep you safe. #privacy #cybersecurity #travel #knowyourrights #dataprivacy

Telling people to use passcode only is the worst advice you can give. Cameras are everywhere and I can tell you from experience that modern security cameras have zero issue zooming in and reading what you’re typing. Have a strong alphanumeric passcode, but use biometrics in public. For both Android and iOS, simply turn your phone off or restart it before going through customs. This will put your phone in a before first unlock state and your passcode will be required. Under the 5th, you do NOT have to give your passcode. If you have an iPhone, turn on lockdown mode before going through customs. The FBI, Cellebrite, and GrayKey have all admitted they cannot break into an iPhone in lockdown mode or with recent software updates.

Ya, its creepy having some guy go through your phone. There will always be some guy who will abuse that power and go through the pics of a girl he thinks is hot. 😳

The border has always had the most freedom when it came to searching. That’s where all the evidence usually is.
