    I literally have nothing to hide, but conveniently have just reset my phone whenever I’m flying into the US.

      My company will give you a blank laptop if you have confidential information on it when traveling to the US. The policy is always to comply and hand over everything if asked so they want to minimize any risks of information falling into the wrong hands.

      That policy also applies for traveling to China. So it’s pretty telling that my company thinks the US and Chinese governments are both risks to its intellectual property.

      You can setup Syncthing to be able to quickly redownload everything after you reset your phone.

        Well, but I specifically don’t want to quickly resync anything while I’m in the US. I’ll have what I need of documents on a Proton Drive or similar.

        I’ll turn back on iCloud sync later.
