If you think limiting Facebook access for travelers would make things worse, argue that. But dismissing it as a partial fix misses the point

The UK are imprisoning people not turning over passwords. What makes you think they won’t do the same if we don’t disable “travel mode”?

because there is a law against not disclosing passwords, but no law that requires you to maintain full access to your social media

Who & how turns this travel mode on? Users themselves? Or is it geo-based?

that’s a good question with arguments on either side.

If it's geo based, they can force you to login to their network that has faked location servers.

that’s one of the good arguments against. Although I imagine in any scenario it would be time-locked

Time locking would be the only viable option. Unless they have a backdoor way of unlocking it.

I agree that time locking is the only viable way. The question is do you trigger it automatically, or do users do it

If automatically, for how long? Can US customs confiscate electronics for non-US travelers until they leave the country?

customs can take stuff permanently, I believe. In that case you go home and change your password
