I've travelled to dozens of countries and the only one where my phone was searched was the US. They searched a sanitized decoy phone. My actual phone was at home safe and sound. I didn't cross my arms and stomp my feet and say I was never doing back because I'm not a petulant, entitled child. I understand that I am subject to the laws of the country that I'm visiting and go prepared. I think that anyone who swears that they are never going to visit a country that searched their sister's phone to make sure she wasn't walking into being human trafficked is someone that we can quite happily do without visiting our country.

If that's being a dick then I'm a dick.
