Wanneer je nergens van verdacht wordt zal je ook niet gauw met de politie in aanraking komen. Dan speelt dit ook helemaal niet.
Ook de douane wil nog wel eens je telefoon bekijken voor nader onderzoek. Wanneer je dit blokkeert word je eenvoudigweg niet in de VS toegelaten.
...als je daar staat en douane of politie doen moeilijk om een of andere reden kan je nog altijd een advocaat contakteren
Ik kan me werkelijk niet voorstellen dat dit mag in de VS.
U.S. immigration officers have broad authority to search travelers’ luggage and belongings when they enter the United States. That authority extends to cellphones, laptop computers, and tablets. Custom officials treat these electronic devices similar to luggage, carry-on bags, and purses – they are all subject to a search when the owner attempts to enter the country through any point of entry. Digital searches of this type can be very alarming since we keep so much personal information on our phones, computers, and devices these days. Once an agent has your phone or device in hand, he or she can go through text messages, voicemails, social media apps, photos, and any other apps or content you have stored on your phone.It does not matter if you are a U.S. citizen, a permanent resident, a visitor, or a visa holder – anyone can be asked to provide their electronic devices and passwords or access codes at the U.S. border. If you are a U.S. citizen or permanent resident, you cannot be prevented from entering the country, even if you deny the request. However, officials may confiscate your phone and backup the data before returning it to you. They can also make entry difficult such as by holding you for questioning or delaying your entry. If you are not a U.S. citizen or permanent resident and you deny officials access to your phone, you most likely will be refused entry to the United States. (bron)
