   @jwildeboer @catileptic Oddly, I have very little desire to enter either.

     @catileptic Just like when you enter the US. They can do the same since quite a few years and you haven't officially entered the country at that moment, you have no legal options.

     Border authorities in China can search electronic devices as well as collect emails, pictures, and videos of foreigners entering the country. No warrant needed. These searches can be conducted in case of emergencies - although it seems like there are no checks & balances in place to reign in or even track when this is being done. Or why.
