CBP has you over a barrel on searches while entering the U.S.
BUT, there is a 2018 CBP memo 👇 that requires CBP to contact CBP Chief Counsel office before conducting the search IF the subject of the search asserts part of the contents are subject to attorney-client privilege.
The Chief counsel office then has to set up a “filter team” to handle and segregate the docs claimed to be attorney - client privilege.
Also, there are also search protocols in the memo re other “sensitive” documents claimed to be:
- medical records
- journalist docs
- “business or commercial information”
One has to claim the searched documents are subject to the protocols when the devices are being taken over.
Of course, these “protections” are hardly complete in any way, shape or form, but in some cases, they may just create the friction during the search process necessary to eventually get one out of having to show some private info.
In other words, it could be a limited useful tool.
