Thousands of US government officials have unlimited access to as many as 10,000 devices which are seized from travelers moving across the country.
Electronic devices such as cellphones, iPads and laptops taken from those going through airports, seaports and border crossings are being mined for data.
The leader of the Customs and Border Protection told congressional staff that the massive database can be accessed by 2,700 CBP officers without a warrant.
During a briefing, which took place in the summer, officials also said that the data is maintained for 15 years.

i belive this is possible 100 miles from any border
Creeping police state with total awareness technology. Of course you will always get your day in court if you can afford it that is! Only the rich can buy enough justice in today's world now. A court appointed attorney is just another smoke and mirrors technique. Your guilty until proven innocence now.
