American used 'duress' password to wipe phone at border — court case follows

A US citizen has asked a court to dismiss the government's case against him, arguing he gave border agents a so-called "duress" password that automatically wiped his phone's data during a border search. The case raises significant questions about Americans' constitutional rights when their devices are searched at the border. A court will now decide whether his actions were lawful.
