U.S. customs searched a record number of electronic devices last year— Recently revised directive adds flash drives, smart watches to searchable devices

My German company has a travel directive to use clean-slate Laptops and virgin burner phones when going to the US for some time now already.
There are reasons for that…
Completely understandable, Americans are definitely using these searches for industrial espionage.
Would be even better if your company had a travel directive not to travel to the US.
Would be kinda hard for an international company that has several work locations in the US… ;-)
