"You have 5th amendment rights against self incrimination."

My concern is while that is often stated, those people aren't sitting in the detention centre with you for hours while your digital devices and the material on them is being searched and you are being 'threatened' with further detention, likely bogus charges and pressured to admit guilt for using your laptop as a normal user does.

These are standard interrogation tactics that people need to be prepared for. If you really feel threatened, speak to a qualified layer before you make any decisions, say anything, or agree to anything you don't want to.

Standing up for your rights and privacy isn't always going to be easy. But sitting in detention for a little while is really a small price to pay for your liberty. Plus, you'll waste a lot of public money in the process.
