    I’m going to the US in a few weeks. I’m taking a factory reset burner phone and putting a brand new M2 in my notebook with a vanilla Windows install. I don’t use social media and don’t remember my passwords.

    And I sure as fuck don’t use biometric unlock on anything.

      I wouldn’t actually roll through with a completely blank phone/laptop, fill it with a bunch of fake but innocuous data first

        Meh, I don’t care if they send me home. I don’t want to go anyway. I’m crossing the border in Ottawa so the worst they can do to me is send me home and make me PNG.
