Description
A federal case has been launched against Samuel Tunick, a U.S. citizen charged after his GrapheneOS-equipped phone reportedly wiped itself during a border search, raising questions about digital privacy and government authority. Guest host Garland Nixon and Hard Lens Media’s Kit Cabello discuss Customs and Border Protection's expanded 2026 phone search policies, arguing they allow broad searches of travelers' devices with limited legal protections, particularly at border crossings.
The two debate whether deleting data to protect privacy should be treated as a felony and criticize what they view as government overreach and the growing surveillance state. The conversation also explores the legal issues surrounding border searches, probable cause, digital evidence, and constitutional rights.
