I am planning on travel to Mexico soon. A few days ago my sister in-law sent photos and videos of my nephew in bed with his 7 year old girl friend in the family WhatsApp channel. He is only in his underwear and she is topless and crawling around in her underwear and giving him hugs. She repeatedly does this with my nephew's bath-time as well. Out of context it looks creepy and perhaps would be flagged by an AI classifying for exploitation.

So if the AI has me marked as a person of interest and they seize my phone at the border, it won't be a good day for me. Am I just being paranoid and lacking perspective because I have never been a parent who spends a lot of time with naked children ? Is this so common that I shouldn't be concerned ?



It doesn’t really matter if it is common. What matters is what the undertrained CBP officer thinks.

Based on the fact that you are concerned, I’d say there is some agent out there that would flag it and ruin your / the kids’ lives, etc.
