20 ago 2009 ano - US CBP and DHS Policy Changes

Descrição:

Allowed suspicion-less searches of documents and electronic devices carried by US citizens returning from overseas travel.

Before this change, Americans returning from overseas travel, were searched only if there was a reasonable suspicion that a US law had been violated. The new policy (introduced by the Bush administration and followed by the Obama administration) allowed government officials to search any documents or papers, including the entire contents of laptops and other electronic devices, without any suspicion of wrongdoing.
