- TZubiri 1y agoThe cited article is about searching phones at port of entries before admission to the states, not within a 100 mile radius. There may not be consensus on where the border is binary, or whether it's phased, whether it's 100 miles thick or 1 centimeter thick, whether it's here or there. But we have consensus that there exists a border and that you can people that have not yet entered do not have the constitutional rights of persons in the jursidiction yet.
