What about simply not using a smartphone and accessing your data via internet when you're in the country? You could use Mega (secure file storage) to access your files, for example.

I wonder if border agents could coerce you into giving access to your internet file storage, though.

I believe they can. I believe they can even request your social media credentials, despite that being against the ToS for those sites. It's not against the law to refuse, but they can and will reject entry on that basis.

That's interesting. I don't even know most of my passwords (thanks to password managers).

Don't worry, they can ask for that password too :D

Yes, but that one has 2FA, and I might not travel with that second factor on me.

Of course, they won't be amused.

		In other words, 2FA might actively put you in danger. Something to consider before travel and perhaps temporarily lowering your digital security to preserve your physical one.

AFAIK in the US their policies do not allow them to access your cloud stored data.
