The USA is a fascist dictatorship!
border agents repeatedly demanded access to his phone and told him they did not need a warrant.
The US is lawless, so the Constitution does not matter, but without a warrant they had no legal claim whatsoever to the phone or its contents.
That seems to be the current line of defense — no legal claims means the owner can delete what they want to delete
Usa is a tool for criminals to use… Globally.
Haha fucking legend.
That’s what it’s there for.
Prison seems a bit much for the officer, but I think loosing their job and some compensation for the victim is warranted.
if by any case I have to visit the US, I’m bringing a nokia 1600 with me
That will get you detained.
I have a long list of actions my university’s lawyers tell me will risk detention if I travel to USA. Their top layer of advice is to ignore rights and laws because Border Agents will do that.
