Which countries do you think have better rights regimes than the US? Ie which countries _are_ you willing to travel to?
Not OP but almost all of Europe comes to mind.

For Face ID, just close your eyes.
There’s no delay. If it even sees you as you are closing your eyes, it unlocks. My son and I just tested this.

A continent where laws capable of sending you to prison for freely expressing certain opinions is your counter example to a lack of certain advanced individual rights in the U.S.
They can still get your texts and contacts and call history from your car though. In many cars it syncs.

For the Hacker News members who are reflexively downvoting my comment, presumably for political reasons, I refer you to Riley vs. California, the 2014 SCOTUS decision that ruled warrantless searches of cell phones were unconstitutional: https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/573/373/ The opinion was written by Roberts with a concurrence by Alito. Again, presumably, the 2024 court is likely to take an even a dimm…

You can't apply the law retroactively. The law, despite being unconstitutional, allowed this, so you can't go back and arrest people who weren't breaking the law at the time. What you can do is track back every arrest that resulted from one of these searches, and ask for all charges and convictions to be vacated/overturned because the evidence was collected in an unconstitutional way. I'm more interested in damage co…
> You can't apply the law retroactively. I don't know, it depends on their mood I guess? I'm unaware of the U.S. legal system specifically, but the Court of Justice of the European Union invalidated laws retroactively in the past. This isn't exclusive to EU laws either. My home country did the same thing with national laws. So I don't know, maybe the US can do that as well, but people just assume the US can't because…
It is amazing how the U.S. consistently gets away with this and is still perceived as a free country. In the 1980s the only border I knew where printed material was searched was the East German border. Back then the practice was considered outrageous.

The US also asks for a list of social media accounts, which is creepy.
