The border control can search any phone within 100 miles of the border. It's bullshit
Also worth noting that since this includes coastline, it means basically 2/3 of Americans are deprived constitutional rights.

99% of Canada lives within 100mi of the US border, and armed agents have invaded Canada to kidnap a Canadian for 'breaking' an American law as a Canadian not breaking any Canadian laws, on Canadian sovereign soil, so they can render that person to America and convict there.

And international airports.
