Curious as to whether others had experienced this, a search turned up a 2007 post by Thomas Kyte, who is, or was, an Oracle employee. His story of border inspections at the Canada-US border is amusing on its own merit.
Part of Kyte's annoyance was an obvious lack of IT savvy on the part of the customs agent. While it wasn't the focus of his blog post, it's clear that the typical customs agent, unable to navigate Windows proficiently and burdened by a misguided search for pornography, is unlikely to discover Al Queda messaging on terrorist laptops submitted for inspection.
