CBP officers have access to massive amounts of data. A "little white lie" about why you are visiting (e.g., saying "tourism" when you plan to do freelance work) is grounds for immediate deportation and a multi-year ban.

Let’s clear that up right now. CPB is actually a common misordering of CBP (Customs and Border Protection). DHS stands for the Department of Homeland Security.

CBP has the legal authority to search your phone or laptop at the border without a warrant. While rare, it happens. If you are a journalist, researcher, or activist, consider traveling with a "clean" device. The Bottom Line You won’t find an agency called "CPB DHS." But you will find CBP —the uniformed men and women working under the DHS umbrella to secure the border.
