I understand the anger, and I understand people wanting to protest.
But why on earth would most people here feel the need to travel with a wiped, or factory-defaulted device? I mean, if you have something to hide, or sensitive information, sure, I guess. But it's not like they stop and ask for a password from everyone. This probably applies to 1 in thousands, if not tens of thousands of passengers. What on earth do you gain by going through the elaborate precaution of wiping all your devices, for a 1 in 10k chance of someone bothering to look at them, especially when they wouldn't find anything?
It is ok to be both angry, even outraged at a policy, but also not let it impact you in a totally crazy way which doesn't make any sense.
