The logic of vance meme to strip search is quite a convoluted mess.

[–] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

You never know where they are hiding those dank memes.

Why the fuck are they allowed access to people's personal devices, people have a right to privacy

[–] modus@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Because people allow them to. "I forgot the PIN" is still a valid answer. But I want to know why people are bringing their primary phones at all.

[–] thanksforallthefish 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

If you refuse access they immediately refuse entry. Which means you're immediately deported

[–] modus@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (4 children)

OK, so in that case, why the fuck are people bringing their normal phones?!

[–] Klowner@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Because you shouldn't need a fuckin burner phone to visit the land of the fuckin free?

[–] pau_hana@feddit.org 5 points 1 day ago
[–] hayes_@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

Because most people don’t expect border security to demand access to their phone?

[–] thanksforallthefish 3 points 1 day ago

Lots of people don't know the US has turned fascist I guess

[–] Evotech@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Because they are going on a holiday? Like lmao

[–] Iceman@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Primary phone is just your phone. You bring the one phone ypu have becuse you didn't belive the US had really become Tajikistan levels of draconian.

[–] MushuChupacabra@lemmy.world 188 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Never travel to the united states

[–] Hylactor@sopuli.xyz 70 points 2 days ago

It's quite clear the only way we'll learn is the hard way. We'll see how much smug entitlement we can sustain when the world moves on without us.

Or if you do, fill your phone with 1000s of up close photos of assholes. See if they figure it out.

[–] Dran_Arcana@lemmy.world 29 points 2 days ago (5 children)

Fill your gallery entirely with nothing but AI upscaled 4k gifs of tubgirl

I live on the border. I've been many times. The day Trump was elected the second time I swore I would never cross the border again.

Welp, I guess I can't go to the US.

Oh no.

If you wanted to make America more secure, disband ICE and TSA completely and replace them with nothing.

Smaller, more secure government.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ahhh, what?

Btw, CBP is not the same as the TSA. CBP is customs and border control. TSA keeps people from bringing bombs and guns on planes.

I get the point of needing some kind of security at the airport, and having a national agency provide said security makes more sense to me than requiring each airport to wing it. provides some consistency. that being said, i have plenty of complaints about the current way it's implemented.

The US Department of Homeland Security has rejected Kitchen’s claim, calling it “unequivocally false.”

DHS is unequivocally lying through their teeth.

Aww are the party that never shuts up about hurt feelings hypocrites, shocker

The next Olympics in the US should be interesting. "And none of the other teams or their fans were able to enter the US..."

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 21 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It will be heavily boycotted. It will be MAGA-approved athletes getting their asses kicked by the Russians and the Chinese.

[–] jonne@infosec.pub 18 points 2 days ago

Olympics and World Cup. I bet you'll see stories of athletes being denied entry when those events are on.

If history holds, it will be the last olympics for a decade

So can he sue USA for being unjustly returned?
It seems that should be an option. Sue USA through the embassy in Norway.
That way the NHS will have to show probable cause, and if they can't they have to pay compensation.

IDK if Norway has, but here in Denmark we do have warnings about traveling to USA now!
Some months ago this warning mostly regarded LGBT people, but here in June the warning has changed to regard everybody!!
Simply don't go to USA unless you have to!

be aware of the risk of terror, shootings and natural disasters.

Please note that you may be refused entry or be expelled from the United States if...

[–] thebestaquaman@lemmy.world 37 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Not only are there warnings: Around a month ago, a fund that has funded some students at top US universities quite literally evacuated several of the students they were funding.

We're talking about Norwegian students in the US getting a call telling them to "get your passport, and get on the first possible flight home, don't worry, we're paying." This was just around when people with certain skin colours, political opinions, or sexual preferences started getting snatched off the streets.

That's when I realised how absolutely fucked shit has gotten over there. When Norwegian citizens on student visas were literally told to evacuate the country.

Meanwhile, here in Canada it's fucking crickets. They briefly had a warning about the protests in LA, but there's no recommendation or warning about visiting the US. They're kidnapping people off the streets, imprisoning them, deporting them to other countries, and Trump has repeatedly mentioned annexing our country and yet our government is saying nothing.

This kind of shit is why I fear to go vacation elsewhere. If they knew about half the things I've said (or what I done to get perma-ed off reddit), they'll be meeting me at the airport...

Freedom of speech, amirite???

Land of the fee and the home of the slave

[–] bender223@lemmy.today 14 points 2 days ago

The proper response to this is to post that meme to even more places. ✊
