border agents repeatedly demanded access to his phone and told him they did not need a warrant.
The US is lawless, so the Constitution does not matter, but without a warrant they had no legal claim whatsoever to the phone or its contents.
That seems to be the current line of defense — no legal claims means the owner can delete what they want to delete
Usa is a tool for criminals to use... Globally.
Murica ,land of free ? 🤔 , will never go to murica , prefer my custom rom graphene phone
We're free af if youre rich and white.
Just being rich is probably sufficient.
Depends on how free you want to be. Certainly isn't enough for freedom ultra, but you might get into the freedom pro or even the freedom max plans
Nice. Congrats. Happy for you. Not at all jealous, stuck over here with fucking KNOX...
They can pry Graphene from my cold, dead hands.
Let's hope your username doesn't become relevant.
what... telling stories about orbits?
Haha fucking legend.
That's what it's there for.
if by any case I have to visit the US, I'm bringing a nokia 1600 with me
That will get you detained.
I have a long list of actions my university's lawyers tell me will risk detention if I travel to USA. Their top layer of advice is to ignore rights and laws because Border Agents will do that.

Prison seems a bit much for the officer, but I think loosing their job and some compensation for the victim is warranted.
