Don't Want To Unlock Your Device For Customs? New Zealand May Fine You $3,300

Passengers board an Air New Zealand flight at Christchurch Airport in New Zealand in 2017. A new law says arriving travelers may be fined for failing to provide a passcode or fingerprint to unlock electronic devices for customs agents.

The government says customs will search the phone in flight mode, and not look at data stored in the cloud. But civil liberties advocates are calling the law "a grave invasion of privacy."
