Customs drones can be quite clueless. Good luck with that, Sleazy!

How clueless can they be? True story:
About 5 years ago I was flying from Canada to the states, returning home from Christmas. In my carry-on bag, I had a toaster oven someone gave to me. We're talking about a 9"x12"x14" toaster oven, not some mini-toaster thing... a full-sized toaster oven. A lady working for U.S. customs looked in my bag, shuffled a few things around, and then as she closed my bag she said "Don't worry, you don't have to turn on your computer." I had no computer; she was referring to the toaster oven!

So hopefully the Canadian customs agents won't try to jam a slice of bread into your laptop before they turn it on
