DHS makes this sound like it's not a done deal, but if it is, I expect a massive spike in the sale of Chromebooks.http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/dhs-bans-laptops-large-electronics-europe-u-s-flights-article-1.3153743?cid=bitly …

Unless I felt like I'd be a target for hw-level backdooring, laptop w/boot from USB3 micro dongle and keeping that carry-on would suffice.

Everyone is a target for hw-level backdooring. Don't be suprised when it gets leaked. Network hardware already hacked.

No, backdooring has to balance risk of getting caught (both criminal liability and revealing your backdooring technique).

Deanonimization is still an issue - connects your devices' MAC to your passport.

Are there still systems not doing mac randomization?

Also, only backdoor "scrubbed" laptops - with a freshly installed OS and properly erased discs. Those are the suspicious ones.

They're also the ones belonging to people who will immediately RE your backdoors or hand the laptop over to someone who will.

So, the hunt for the first DHS tampered laptop is on! I expect a big "it wasn't us, it was the Russians" on discovery :-)

Yes, I expect it to happen. Just don't expect them to give away their secrets to anybody who flies with a laptop.
