We know that there are also Israelis calling for the genocide of Palestinians. None are being deported. I'd be willing to believe that some of the students being deported have called for genocide, but the government must produce evidence. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/court-tells-government...
This is untrue. No one is calling for genocide of Palestinians. They just need to evacuate the rubble caused by hamas and move to safer places

Well yes, just don't go there with incriminating devices. They will try to bully us in many other ways but this has nothing to do with the devices and how to hide stuff.
Well, considering that the US considers some political beliefs and journalism crimes, "don't go there with incriminating devices" implies restrictions on free speech and journalistic freedom. Also, privacy is not only for hiding crimes. Equating privacy with criminality is a great way to get undermine people's rights further. It's perfectly ok to think that some random TSA agent shouldn't be seeing my family photos e…
So either I go or I don't go. If I go and comply I am fine. If I go and do not comply I am in trouble. If I go and try to sneak stuff I am in trouble.
I am not sure where this is complicated. We are not talking about ethics, but about some crazy ideas to hide stuff. This is irresponsible and dumb.

Who came for you? You want to go to the US (or any other country) and therefore you align with their rules. Nobody forces you to go there, and especially play secret agent. If you go, you know that what you have can be searched so have nothing, or have something that is not controversial. The same applies to all the countries in the world.

> 4. Pretty much have to own a car in most places. Hey, electric scooters are not the worst ever (although I got hit by a truck while riding one and decided to get a car just because I don't like getting hit by trucks)
Need faster e-scooter!
So actually the lesson apparently was don't attempt to pass vehicles on a scooter, more speed is bad.

Common sense is suspending US travel. I did that last month.
Would you elaborate why? (without being vague) I assume it's not common sense just because you did it? Issues with border patrol can happen in any country. If they have bad mood, or you suddenly decided to piss them off, they will do their best to make your life harder. The US is not the best or worst to that matter. People who chose working as border patrol are not the smartest people out there (otherwise it is unli…
I don't want that in my life. As simple as that.

"Private" in marketing terms only. Border agents have access to it all. If you refuse to turn over all of your passcodes and passwords for the access they're after (including social media profiles), they can detain you and seize your device.
Source? Even law enforcement are limited to grayshift and cellebrite for access.

> fraudulently obtaining citizenship It seems like they are claiming that “not saying you intended to protest” is essentially lying on the initial visa application, thus fraud and grounds for revocation of residence and deportation So, if CBP confiscated someone’s laptop or phone (because they don’t want to unlock it), then break into it, and find social media posts against genocide, and/or against the Trump administ…
I'm deeply displeased with their treatment of legal residents here, but denaturalizing a citizen is about a million times more severe than deporting a legal resident alien. The executive has pretty much unlimited authority to decide which non-citizens are allowed to enter or stay within the country, and has for a long time, whereas that's not the case with denaturalization.

Not sure about denaturalization, but this is getting pretty extreme already (USCIS, effective immediately, is screening immigrants for criticism of Israel): https://www.reddit.com/r/UnitedNations/comments/1jw8gyv/all_...

Yeah, it’s great, but what does that have to do with my comment?
