"The guidance says border agents cannot use the >device to access information stored remotely, such as on "the >cloud," and will ask travellers to turn off their device's >connectivity or do so themselves to avoid accessing that data." AA>"However, agents can search people's email, text and WhatsApp >messages, and any other content that's accessible on a device." I wonder if that may be because messages and such are considered somewhat Public where a Cloud Storage site can be totally private? AA>"Travellers are "obligated" to present their electronic devices >and the information stored on it "in a condition that allows >for the examination of the device and its contents," the CBP >says, including providing necessary passwords." I can add this to all the reasons why I don't travel outside Canada anymore, although I only went to the USA quite often in earlier years and never made it to any other countries. I can't think of many I'd like to visit, although that may be more due to having to cope with the crowds of people you fight getting there than not wanting to visit another country.. AA>Wrt to Telegram, Session, et al.. I suppose the user could >uninstall the apps prior to inspection of a device, and then >reinstall them after clearance from border security. From their Cloud account..
