The United States’ Department of Homeland Security now has the power to detain a traveler’s laptop indefinitely at the border, without any cause for suspicion. This is frightening, especially since all of my work and personal life is stored inside this machine. Not to mention that I use Linux, which might set off a cyber-terrorist alert, since it is the OS of hackers… apparently.
