      Stuff may get stolen. Forces having checked luggage. If laptops are dangerous, aren't they dangerous in cargo? Bring phone with keyboard. 🙄 https://twitter.com/evanchill/status/844135868684288000 …

      Also if laptops *are* a threat, they should obviously be banned universally. A terrorist can obviously fly through Europe or South America.

      If you're a journalist or an activist, fly with a chromebook. Carry minimal sensitive info anyway. Put it in an encrypted USB—always on you.

          OK. Though my experience is that checked bags are less inspected. Istanbul airport often forces turning on laptops.https://twitter.com/alastairjam/status/844148009319522305 …

          A cargo hold has fire detection and suppression that a cabin does not.

          isnt one of the current fears that customs demand passwords or deny entry? They may supply their own chromebooks :-(

          business idea: chromebook rental in airports. (like rental cars: rent it for duration of visit) Carry no data across borders.

          Good advice for everybody, logged out Chromebook will remove all data, if forced to login again, one can login with a different empty one

          Cybersecurity guy suggested storing encrypted blob (key) in cloud while traveling. Download after you pass airport security.

          Why a Chromebook? Thought it was advised to steer away from Google services for security.

          puting all your private data on the hands of a public corporation doesn't sound like a proper advise for anyone, esp. for activists

          Chromebook. Not Gmail, which is different than using a Chromebook. They don't have your data; you can turn history off.

          Encrypted pendrive? You're literally just begging them to get detained indefinitely until you give them full access.

          borders are different issue than plane cargo. Doesn't matter where your data is if it's on you.
