This effects us all who go into and out of the US. With todays bar coding of passports the system knows exactly who you are and what you do for a living. -

If it helps stop the transport of child pornography and/or terrorist related information then I'm all for it. Imagine if a random search like this helped crack a child porn ring? Or prevented a terrorist attack?
Sure it sucks for us people in adult who go to the U.S. and need to bring our work, but in the big picture - which most people don't give a shit about, this makes sense: (Talking From an American citizen's POV) "You're coming into my country so we have a right to be sure you're not bringing in illegal porn or planning a terrorist attack."
Besides that, really, you can get a random body scan and that's okay. They can go through your suitcase, purse, etc. and that's acceptable too. But a laptop, which potentially can carry obscene material or even material that could threaten national security, and that's a no-no.
Anyhow, to object is to have your priorities out of whack. Here in Canada I would be totally supportive to our Customs being allowed to do the same for visitors, and expect the same treatment when I go to their country.Comment

Already had this happen to me once about a year ago. The guys were real asses about the whole thing because they found some banners. Called us spammers and basically said that that's the only thing we in the porn industry do is spam.
I just sat back and took it like a man, heh, what else are you gonna do? I don't agree with it but from then on, I clean my whole machine before I go into the US.

At least if they know you're a pornographer they can expect to find some porno on your PC. I'd hate to be the middle school teacher going through with a bunch of teen porn on my PC y'know?
I wonder if they have the rights to copy off your whole HD and inspect later.Comment

This is not new at all really.
I always travel with a clean laptop anyways and just download a ghost from my server of the files I need and reupload any changes I have done before I erase it and head home again.
Email is also done through gmail and that is typically set to my family email address before travel anyways.
Browser histories, temp files, cookie caches are clean as well.
Guess with most searches it would be clean anyways unless they really seriously wanted to dig into it and anaylize the crap out of it, yet why would they. I am not one for searches and crap, nor giving up any rights. I just have long come to deal with that air travel is highly regulated and your rights have gone out the window on them long ago. The passport chip well lets just say mine had an accident, though it really does not concern me that much anyways as I do not care if people know where I travel to and again it is air travel.Comment

I guess the correct response of people who actually have to visit the asshole of the civilised world would be to fully encrypt using strong, 512 or 1024 bit security, all the data on all their partitions.
Course the really correct response to living in 1935's Germany is to get the fuck out.Comment

Care to expand on your answer?
I guess you could look at it a way that makes things more simple. If you're not from the USA you have a few options:
1) Bring your laptop and take a chance that Customs will search your hard drive.
2) Don't bring your laptop.
3) Don't go to the USA
Simple.
First time ... ever? Gee, I'm glad I was your first, it's usually the most memorable.first time i really laughed out loud for real.Comment

4) have a clean laptop and do remote work
A girl once told me "Give me 8 inches and make it HURT".
So, I fucked her twice and hit her with a brick.Comment

Logmein.com ftw. Keep laptop clean, and just login to the desktop at home if I need anything. If you really need something pw protect your drive.
Can they force you to enter your pw to your laptop I wonder?Comment

I'll explain his answer for him.
1) Anyone who truly has nefarious stuff to hide (terrorist plans, cp, whatever) will send it heavily encrypted over the internet.
2) Things that will turn up are trade secrets, personal files (pictures of your naked wife, your diary, etc) and other things that the government has no business looking into.
Giving up a fair amount of privacy for zero extra security. Yeah, awesome idea./(bb|[^b]{2})/Comment

Is there a way to create a hidden user account on your laptop? Not like they have MIT guys working in the airports to pull your info out hehe.Comment

I have crossed my laptop 15 times with no issues. They asked what was in the bag, I said my laptop they said have a nice day. This was at a car crossing. Never in the airport.
Sadly stopping people at the airport and searching laptops wont help much. they will from time to time catch the odd idiot that does not delete it all, but the rest will do the same as mentioned in this thread. Clear it all, and upload it to a server.PornGuy skype me pornguy_epic

wow xbiz a little late on the news story huh didnt this story make mainstream news like a month ago?...Comment

I love the ones spouting "if you're not guilty, you have nothing to worry about. I like it because it stops criminals" and meanwhile, in their second breath will talk about how terrorists hate America because they're jealous of their "freedom".
If that's your idea of freedom, no one is jealous.Comment

This would all make sense if this is what it was used for and the law was applied with common sense. Unfortunately the it's not what it's used for and it's applied with no common sense and in practice applied with moronic sense. I know I have been through it many times.
When I fly to the US I have an over night stop in NY, love the city and no intention of getting on another plane for a day or two. The over night stop comes up on my ticket and this singles me out for a full search. I'm mid fifties, greying, European and a business man, not your typical profile for a terrorist. They also know I'm a legal pornographer as this comes up in their systems. But not what they're looking for.
The Arab looking students in the line do not get pulled out because they did not have an overnight stay. I'm sure Al Queda know how this part of the system works. When asked why the Arab looking students were not pulled out for a full check I was told this was racist profiling and illegal and wrong. By a guy who could be Muslim, looked maybe Turkish, was employed by an outside security company and probably on minimum wage.
He als called me a racist and said I did not understand the situation.
Laws are fine is applied with common sense, sadly they are not.Comment

Please stop being sensible, this is GFY, and using common sense. We all know the terrorists are morons who will have no idea how to get around elementary procedures like these. And no one would ever think the procedures were just to make it look as if you had a clue and were doing something affective.
Let's face it these procedures are all about looking good and little about real prevention.
Sorry for posting an old story, for some it's not.Comment

i've travelled and only once in Canada did they give me problems. His words were... " You don't have anything on there you shouldn't do you". I smiled at him and said, no I keep my porn collection at home. Gave him the finger and walked away. Customs officials are 99% BS and wannabe police officers who failed training. I've had problems traveling solo and they always assume I'm a drug trafficker or something similar. One of them on a trip from the Philippines asked me my purpose of the trip.. Told him to relax and play.. he asked play?.. I said yeah, I have a different girl each night for 10 nights and play... He smiled and I walked on...
They booted mine up on a couple of occasions but that's all. It's making news recently because Congress is getting involved i think...
Good article though..Email: [email protected]
