If you have a laptop, notebooks, digital info, papers, anything you want kept private (or not arbitrarily seized for no reason), you simply have to slide it into an envelope addressed to you, with enough international postage - and SEAL it.
Customs has not been given the right to open private mail on your person without a search warrant.

Well ... they aren't arbitrarily "seizing" things for no reason. They are doing a "search" .... a search and a seizure are very different things. Try reading the actual law on the subject. Oh, and by the way, they can demand that you open "private mail" on your person so they can search it. So .... try again.

So do I. There is nothing illegal about doing that, assuming you are over the age of consent.
