Last week, I traveled to Toronto, and attended the 2025 Association of Professional Responsibility Lawyers annual meeting. As always, I enjoyed hanging with my nerd friends and learning a lot. I completed my Board service after two terms.
Because international travel is a little ~interesting~ these days, I traveled with an inexpensive pay-as-you-go cell phone and an iPad instead of my usual phone and laptop. The goal here was to cross the border with no locally stored client data and, in fact, as little data as possible. Border agents have far broader leeway to search devices than other law enforcement officers; although statistics show detailed searches are exceedingly rare at United States ports of entry, I did not want to take the chance.
