Always turn your phone off before crossing international borders. And use a >20 char boot passphrase.

First time I heard about it was from this youtube channe...called "all things secured" but I don't remember the video , he said police officers stopped him and plugged a USB C on his phone, after a few moments they let him go..
this article discuses the same situation but I'm sure you can find other sources
