Indonesian moving to Australia soon, I’m just concerned my laptop/phone will be checked for pirated content.
The general rule of thumb I’ve seen around the internet is “encrypt your drive”, which is easy enough. But the other approach typically says “bring a burner phone / laptop” which of course isn’t viable in my case.
Can anyone confirm on the legitimacy of these claims? I know I pirate light (““light”” compared to the vets here), but I’m just so paranoid that I could be held up and sent back home, because this might be my only shot.
As said, I’m very paranoid because this might be the only chance I get to move somewhere decent (minus all the, well, problems).
Judging from your statement, does it mean that
I can bring an external hard drive (like 1 or 2 because I have terabytes of data from my old drives)?
and 2. Gigabit connections are essentially available in every single household in Aussie?
Gigabit connections are available almost everywhere, for a cost of around $120AUD/month (usually 1000 mbps down, 40mbps up). Look at a provider like AussieBroadband for details.
2 drives won’t raise any questions - just say you’re a videographer if asked.
