A U.S. citizen has asked a court to throw out the government's claim that he gave over a passcode to border authorities that wiped his phone's data, opening up fresh questions about a person's constitutional rights at the U.S. border.

Ain’t that some BS

    The evidence that he gave a duress password is that the phone flashed and restarted, and then it was empty?

    I’ve used multiple Android phones that freeze and restart out of nowhere, and sometimes when you unlock the phone it “flashes” and restarts.
