I mean.. I saw the border agent searching my name on Google years ago (let's say ~2005-2008-ish) when I was entering the US from Canada (one of the Vancouver-area border crossings). They looked at my website or myspace page IIRC, I forget what. I could see their screen which was tilted slightly at an angle such that it was visible from my position outside the booth/window. BTW, this wasn't for any reason or anything, it was a totally normal crossing and they just started looking up my name on the web as if it were standard procedure. I'm sure that's all automated now, they probably get a nice listing of data they have on you the moment your passport is scanned at the border. Who knows? Maybe now they'll get a 3d avatar of your face because it's been scanned at the airport of any allied country, because you had the audacity to travel out-of-country and are now subjected to unprecedented data collection.
