Yes of course. Basically they have ruled the entire warrant requirement for searches and prohibition on unreasonable searches and seizures is suspended within 100 miles of any border or international airport (which is most of the US).

The law makes it clear that the rules are only suspended in the customs zone of the airport and within 100 miles of the airport. They seem to follow that. The checkpoints you see in Washington state or down near the border with Mexico do not show up around denver or dfw. The reality is bad enough we don't need to exaggerate it. And they can't just grab every phone as they walk around LA either, they have to signal their dog to alert on you to give them probable cause...

		The rules are not suspended within 100 miles of the airport, it’s only land and sea borders. (Look it up.) The person you were responding to is wrong and we need to push back against this becoming accepted “folk wisdom” or it will lead to more rights violations.

This gets repeated in every discussion here and it’s absolutely not true. Please stop repeating it or it will become accepted “folk wisdom” and then they’ll actually push it as a policy.

A comparison would be physical keys found during a police search - under what circumstances can the police legally use those keys to search other, locked locations?

How true is that? Can police search a house without warranty in NYC say and have that entered as evidence (plus anything that lead from that) in court?

		No, but cbp could have a k9 at any bottleneck they want and those dogs read their partners body language, so if they are a racist idiot it might alert on excessive melanin providing probable cause. Assuming they didn't just train it to alert on command. And if it alerts yeah they can demand to search your phone. I don't hear about it getting used, but that could be because they are careful not to use it on anyone who might start a case that could get it ruled unconstitutional. They openly use it where they think there is actually smuggling.

		no, because that would clearly be an unreasonable search

The question is about your data stored in the cloud (not sure if it matters that it’s outside the 100mi) not on the phone.

Is the search limited to the phone itself and the data physically residing inside or can they open any door for which that phone is the key?
