I came across this article today.. http://www.pcworld.com/article/id,142429-pg,1/article.html:shock:
Basically it is saying that on landing into the LOTFAP, you have no rights to privacy for content on your laptop or storage devices (HDD, USB Keys, CD's, DVDs etc). I am sure the chances of having such a search are slim, but it's scary stuff. If I were to follow the recommendations in the article, I don't think I would even bother taking my laptop anywhere... without the confidential content that I store on my PC (encrypted of course), there would be very little on there that would be of use to me in a business sense.
