That sounds a bit like an overreading into technicalities.
It makes sense for border control to exist to _some_ degree. That means that property and potentially people will need to be searched. It also makes sense for border entry points to not exist at the moving shore of a nation or in the actual air.
That means that an administrative concept should exist where people on one side of a line are considered to be have been granted entry and people on the other side aren't -- even if both sides of the line are within a nation's territory.
That administrative concept can be (but can also not be) compatible with both the goals of human rights and with the goals of nation states. And at the end of the day, laws should be more focused on achieving goals than fiddling with nitpicking.
- awesome_dude 3y agoI don't think you've understood the post at all. There's nothing in my post about stopping them from exercising border control. There's nothing about where that might take place. The point is, if you have enforceable laws then those that the laws are being enforced on also enjoy the rights available to them under the same laws. A search (of electronic equipment) requires cause (this is why the warrent is needed), and detainment also requires some degree of cause. Arbitrary search and detainment is what we ascribe to totalitarian nations.
