Activist faces federal charge after airport phone search
Activist Samuel Tunick faces federal charges after Customs and Border Protection agents questioned him at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport. The indictment alleges he deleted digital contents from a Google Pixel phone to prevent government custody, an action the article notes was facilitated by a program called GrapheneOS. Tunick's attorneys filed motions arguing that CBP violated his rights, claiming officers did not provide Miranda warnings during the search.
