Question on a detail: It's not necessary to have deniability on the fact that you did wipe your device, just on the fact that you did it after you entered the border? Or said differently, if he'd wiped the device before entering the border, it'd be all fine?

(That of course only takes down the "physically impossible" part.)

Hence why travelers should simply not cross the border carrying sensitive data, ever. The Internet can take that data across the border for you.

I do believe that yes, if it was wiped before entering, there would be no charges (unless there was a shadow docket open... that gets murky)
