Man Charged for Wiping Phone Before CBP Could Search It
So I guess the solution to this is to backup your phone to someplace safe, wipe it, and then restore it when you get to your destination... WTF!

Did they mistakenly erase the phone trying to unlock it, or did it erase itself when he didn't log in for a certain period of time? Like obviously if he was in custody, he either knew he was going to be detained and erased it beforehand (unlikely) or they messed up and ran afoul of good tech privacy practices and are big mad about it.

It'll certainly be my plan if I ever end up going back someday

The article didn't have an image and when I added . it turned it into a an image post instead of a link post so I fucked up. I'll do better.

Since it was a 404 article I read and I know they do paywalls (and I sub to them so I don't get the paywalls) I didn't want to share that link because people might not be able to view it.

Thanks 💛

Okay, it turned it into an image post when I did that.
I see my mistake now. I'll do better.
