ACLU Seeks Records About Laptop Searches At The Border

News release: “United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP) policy permits officials to search the laptops and other electronic devices of travelers without suspicion of wrongdoing, according to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request filed today by the American Civil Liberties Union. The ACLU filed the FOIA request with CBP, a component of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), to learn how CBP’s suspicionless search policy, first made public in July 2008, is impacting the constitutional rights of international travelers.”
