Summary: Items of news from the past week, demonstrating quite clearly that dehumanisation of people starts not only abroad but also at the borders

I’m No @ioerror But the Border Still Broke My Phone To Silence MeYesterday upon returning to the United States from Canada, the United States Customs and Border Protections ruined my HTC One by breaking off the charger inside the phone.
