That sounds by definition not random.

    You get arrested for wiping your phone at the border as we learned last month.

    For now people that need to cross the border should probably carry a travel phone and mail their real one.

    I wonder if I'd get arrested if they run out of tries then it wipes itself, as opposed to providing a duress pin.

    I don't know..

    Over the years the courts have decided that LEOs can't force you to give your pin/password. The issue that wasn't really addressed is why US citizens lack certain rights in the grey zone between US and international territory.

    This all seems illegal but I'm not a laywer

    Or don't take your real phone with you. Memorise a tinyURL that takes you to a place you can restore your original phone contents or even just a password vault, which allows you to reconnect to your important services once you have access to a clean phone again.

    Maybe backup your phone, wipe it, and restore it?

    "Florida lawyer Jalal Shehadeh is convinced that the warrantless seizure of his cell phone by federal agents at the Newark International Airport after he returned from Palestine this September was not random."
