Until you enter the US you are in a weird constitutional grey area. This is why it’s legal for them to search phones in immigration in the US, even if you’re a citizen. As for photography, there’s signs all over the airport I clear immigration at (JFK) saying photography is prohibited in the immigration and customs halls.
- asdefghyk 3y agoRE "....photography is prohibited in the immigration and customs halls....." Why is it prohibited?
- epc 3y agoI don't know, however having traveled to Europe and Asia, it's pretty common in non–US customs & immigration zones.

Do you know that you arent technically in the U.S. until you are 100 miles from the border?

Technically, Florida is not even the U.S. (for citizens).
- epc 3y agoWell, you’re in the US, except Customs & Immigration agents can stop you and demand proof of residence or citizenship.
