They look through your electronics, also your laptop. Didn't take them long to clear me though. But I'm a white Scandinavian and my most recent posts to Facebook were about board games and concerts and most of my mails were in Danish or spam about video games.
I mean, they would probably still have cleared me if they had access to the full story, I'm not that much of a deviant. But take the board game nights as an example. A few of my friends smoke weed at those, and even though I haven't done that for 10 years, it's not something I'd want to be associated with on a social media site that a government trawls, so I make sure to keep that part out of the pictures.
On the other hand if you lack these things that everyone is expected to have, they become suspicious.
- Cakez0r 9y agoWait, you're saying US customs looked through the contents of your laptop and electronics before letting you through? They checked your social media profiles?
- eksemplar 9y agoYes.
- bryananderson 9y agoThis is absurd. As an American, I apologize for my government's lack of hospitality toward you. No country has ever treated me like you were treated by mine, nor would I feel fondly toward any that did.
- cconstantin 9y agoWait, you're saying that you didn't see these kind of stuff? https://www.theverge.com/2017/2/12/14583124/nasa-sidd-bikkannavar-detained-cbp-phone-search-trump-travel-ban https://www.theverge.com/2017/2/12/14583124/nasa-sidd-bikkan...
