--> What if you aren't a US citizen? --> What gives them the right to scan peoples computers over the internet, who are not in the US? --> What if I am Canadian and Traveling in the US? --> Does this mean that the airports are now going to stop people at customs and scan all computers, cameras, MP3 players and other media devices every time we want to travel?

--> What gives them the right to scan peoples computers over the internet, who

--> What if I am Canadian and Traveling in the US?
--> Does this mean that the airports are now going to stop people at customs and
