*If* they did decide to seize your laptop (which is not something they routinely do), you would be powerless to stop them.
I guess say if someone moved from the UK to the US, it would be a BAD idea to take your current PC and all that over there no? As it could be siezed, and say if you happend to have downloaded games and movies, they you are basically ****** yea?

there's nothing to stop them taking a laptop, examining confidential data on it (lets say some research work) and passing it on to a government contractor.
Don't you have to provide a decryption key if asked?No because you can just encrypt it....

If we are talking the equivalent of HMRC here, they do not have to give any reason, "legal" or other. HMRC can do pretty much whatever they feel like, and I would imagine this applies in most other countries too.
Yep well returning on 9/11 it will be interesting to see if there are tighter checks, I am white lol, but I have a Polish surname so here's hoping they don't see fit to frisk me and my wares :/
I'll be sure to post back here when I'm back with the outcome!
I even had to log into hotmail for them!
