Here’s an increasingly common scenario: You’re on a business trip, either entering a foreign country or returning home. As you go through customs, a border-control agent asks you to turn on and hand over your iPhone, then starts poking around, looking at your text messages, call logs and apps. The agent then asks you to wake your MacBook, log into your social media accounts and open your email. After the agent reads your tweets and posts for a few minutes, your phone and laptop are taken “for further inspection” — and returned some time later.

I ricercatori italiani (Monaro, […]<img alt=”” border=”0″ src=”https://pixel.wp.com/b.gif?host=news.sophos.com&blog=834173&post=40178&subd=sophos&ref=&feed=1″ width=”1″ height=”1″ /><img src=”http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/sophos/dgdY/~4/7GPhWUQ_2sg” height=”1″ width=”1″ alt=””/>
