TIL Trump has no Aztec heritage.

They also had famously bad customer service and made a lot of other very strange decisions about what products they would and would not carry.

But but the jingle said 'Service was state of the art'

Attention span is a problem nowadays

A penis almost as big as his President's.

The real lesson here is Lemmy/Reddit is no substitution for a lawyer. ACLU spells it out but in the end there are a lot of circumstances that apply.

Ultimately, if you're a US Citizen, and that's not in question, they can only take your stuff, they can't arrest you.

Ars interviewed an attorney about this...

"For a US citizen, CBP essentially has to let them back into the country," Nathan Freed Wessler, an attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union, told Ars. "They can't be detained indefinitely for refusing to provide a password. They may be detained for hours and they may seize the phone for weeks or months while [CBP tries] to break into it."

So, take it however you will.

For what it's worth I've done a bit over 1.6 million air miles on Delta for work and have the silly keychain tag to prove it, and the only time customs has ever given me shit was at YYZ, the Canadians are no joke if you come in on a US passport, and you'd better have proof you're not coming there for 3 days to do a job that a Canadian could do. In my case I was training some Canadians but People Ops were kind enough not to get me the paperwork I needed.

Most big companies have training for their international travelers as well, the ones I've worked with always say to surrender passwords and equipment, and contact SecOps to let them know as soon as you safely can, some even have nice systems that print out invitation letters and proof of ownership for equipment including serial numbers.

Edit: CBP is NOT a court order to provide a password. If a court orders it and you refuse, well that's contempt, and the list of people who've sat in prison refusing is no joke.

If you're a US citizen they'll just seize it and send it in for forensics.

While they can make your life miserable, and revoke any entry programs you're a member of, they can't prevent a citizen from crossing the border. Only the stuff you carry.

Things which oxidized.

Seriously I hate articles like this.

Yeah I'm remodeling and literally refuse to buy anything that doesn't have physical controls in the kitchen.

Fuck touch controls on everything.

Don't disagree, problem is they get 81 years of video uploaded per day.

At 30,000 hours of video per hour, I'll let you do the math about how many living wage employees would be needed to be trained and dedicated to watching those videos to manually review them.

I promise that even with Google money, they couldn't pay them all.

Exponential scaling works that way. It sucks, but automation is the only way to pull it off.

I came here to say Fuck You

(the song by Lilly Allen, not actually to you...)

Wait, are you trying to say that Risk/Reward is an actual thing?

/s (kinda)

Stop bragging about your sensible consumer laws, and legal vacation requirements, great train system and generally universal health care.
