Is there any basis in the Immigration and Nationality Act for deporting you for refusing to provide you password? From what I understand, it could make it practically impossible to ever return. I’m wondering if not giving your password is a basis for something as serious as this. Does this have any lawful basis?

I'm not convinced lawful basis matters in the average persons situation where they're being detained for questioning without access to legal representation, then sent back.
