NZ Customs requiring passwords

AR Andrew Reitemeyer Public Seen by 201

New Zealand customs is asking for the power to require passengers to reveal passwords for their digital devices.

I think PPNZ should make a submission to the public consultation process objecting to this.
First I think we should have a policy that states that even though it is a fundamental Pirate principles.
