Hmm I think at a border crossing you would have to open your phone if asked or you could be imprisoned or denied entry (depending on country). Even US citizens have been forced to unlock their phones when reentering the US (known dissident journalists for example) and they did unlock to get home.
I could see where these tools are useful when someone is willing to die for their data or is already dead (like the trump assassin guy) and ppl want access to their phone.
The better plan IMO is to just travel with a secondary device with nothing vital on it or to always keep your primary phone without anything vital. Why are people keeping their life secrets on a phone and wandering out in public with it? Use a fully encrypted laptop and keep it at home.
