The purpose of border checks is to prevent use of the border for unlawful purposes. Whatever lawful or unlawful activity you're performing on a domestic server, there would be no nexus with the act of crossing a border and therefore under no theory I'm aware of would the government have any additional power to search data not present on your person or personal effects.
It's 2019, people. "The network is the computer" was 20 years ago. Kubernetes is the new Linux. Why are people keeping sensitive personal data on a personal computer, the same computer they presumably use to browse the web, and the same one they're worried will be unlawfully accessed at borders or foreign destinations. ssh is still a thing and Wayland hasn't even killed X Windows, yet.
I have my own physical servers (pcengines APUs are cheap and reliable; I have like 4 running at the moment), and smartcards to authenticate for remote access to my colocated, locked-down machines.
