this is not new.. its becoming more common as more people travel with laptops.. I don't think 911 has ever been invoked for border laptop searches..
That and the moment they begin to initiate the search I will get their infomation so that i can pass it on to the organization I do research for so that they can send there legal team(HIPPA violation) after that person and who they work for as HIPPA has more teeth and bite then CBP, not to mention all the research partcipants could seek recourse for attempted ID theft.
Good luck on that.
