I’ve lived abroad a few years and had to move all my devices quite a few times.
* invest in actual end to end encrypted cloud storage like tresorit. Keep copies of everything important there. Log out when traveling. Encrypted drives could compel password sharing if they have a problem with you.
* delete all work projects from all devices. Log out of work emails. Travel mode on 1Password etc.
* don’t actually delete everything off of every device, that’d be a flag
* delete all the sensitive photos off your phone. Photos of anything financial, passport/visa scans. Personal photos etc.
* raspberry pi can go in checked luggage. Try to attach some product packaging, don’t pack a ton of those little connector wires as that invites an inspection
* if you want to ship, UPS is pretty decent and fully owns their international ops better than other couriers. FedEx contracts out too much. I’d trust UPS to go through my boxes, but not FedEx. And local mail companies use gvmt customs clearances and just ship on passenger planes. More likely to open and inspect.
