Why do these people agree to let these fascists comb thru their phones?

Because it’s that or be denied entry. And then what do you do?

Is this actually true for full-on citizens tho?

I've seen a few court cases that have said either: 1) you have no expectation of privacy at the border. Govt can do anything they want or 2) there's no blanket permission to ransack phones - have to have cause or etc. I don't think it's been adjudicated up to the supreme court. Hopefully it won't until a better set of judges gets appointed
