Just don't travel there.

I'm sure I'd be fine: I've been fine a dozen times before. That was before they decided that it was OK to demand passwords and so on. Maybe now it would be worse. Or maybe my skin colour lets me off the hook.

Regardless, I'd rather just not waste jet fuel on flying to a place that treats anyone this way.

Your phone/tablet/laptop is, for better or worse, a gateway to your entire life. It contains your photos, bank account credentials, messages between friends, messages between you and your wife, photos between you and your wife…

Random border thugs absolutely should not have the right to rummage through it in another room.

There are plenty of ways to do meetings remotely. There are plenty of places in the world you can travel to for work meetups that aren't the US.

Just don't travel there.
