One solution is for all other countries&#x27; border control started to demand passwords to unlock phone&#x2F;all social apps for UK citizens, SPECIALLY target UK politicians and government workers.<p>Love to see any&#x2F;all the interesting info one can find from the politicians.

I recently flew to the U.S. - I did consider wiping my iPhone in advance and then restoring it from iCloud backup once safely in the hotel, but in the end just left it at home. It was very nice taking a break too.<p>Of course, as a fairly unremarkable middle-aged white guy, I didn&#x27;t get stopped at all.

Follow up from previous HN submitted article: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=14340137" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=14340137</a><p>Surprised more app developers are not creating solutions to this kind of thing - e.g. some form of multisig authorisation to access certain files or 2FA that relies on the second factor only being available at times access is genuinely needed.
