What do you mean by "cross borders" ? I travel oversees and no one has booted my laptop ever to see what's inside. Maybe I've never traveled to those countries.

  US border patrol wants to boot your notebook often to check for kiddie porn. I don't have anything, even movies, no pirated software, etc, however I don't want the existence of the true-crypt program alone to be an issue with overzealous border patrol people

    "often"? I've been stopped by customs a number of times, and they have never made this request. It's too bad, because I want to be the test case.

      I don't actually have a clue how "often' this is versus it not being. I've not been stopped the few times I've traveled internationally. I just know TC in particular has been a thorn in the side of the FBI and that border control people have enough powers to be rather annoying if they get pissed off.
