Man: border agents threatened to “be dicks,” take my phone if I didn’t unlock it | Ars Technica

"Gach's case is just one of a rapidly increasing number of border searches of digital devices."

'The ACLU argued that the non-consensual search of Gach's phone was unconstitutional—despite the prevailing "border exception" to the Fourth Amendment. '

'They hoped to get some answers from the Department of Homeland Security, the parent agency of Customs and Border Protection. '

'"Sorry for the inconvenience," the agent told him. '

'What could happen if you refuse to unlock your phone at the US border?'
