A friend of mine transited STN on the way to Rome last year, the security insisted he turn on his laptop and go through files on it...Do security even have a right to do this?
If I was asked to do this, I would turn the PC on to show it worked, but there is no way I would let a security guy look at any of the files on it.
Its not a personal privacy issue, its a corporate data security issue. PC/Data security is a big issue for most companies these days, I had to do a course about the use of Wireless/Internet/Laptop data security when I jioned, and I dont consider I have access to particularly sensitive data in my job - but i get to use client companies data as part of my job, and that is the problem....
