Yeah, people love to LARP being Snowden but never actually have anything even theoretically worth being sent to border-jail over protecting.

And, if you do, and you're really asking hacker news for opsec advice, I would suggest you abandon your career as a super-spy or whatever you're doing, because you're doing it very wrong.

This is the nothing to hide argument dressed up with hyperbole, straw men, and insults. You're making fun of people protecting basic human rights.

We literally have collectively (to the value that US democracy approximates collectively) decided to abridge those rights within a certain distance of a border. I want people to understand what they are getting themselves into for the sake of their political protest. I would argue it is better to try to approach this reform differently than simply ending up in a border jail with your holiday ruined.

Have a phone just for travel. Different account. Only have things you actually need during travel on it. Turn on a cheap plan when you need it. If they ask for something just say you can't remember and let them keep it.
