Prior clearance is needed before I take it out (and presumably bring it back) in USA travel is in sight always locked never left in a hotel room unless it is in the safe. A laundry list of do and dont do and why. Apple has enough international presence that it really surprises me they dont have a policy in place. Maybe he was a snowflake and didnt think that policy pertained to him we have those around here as well "Science is the belief in the ignorance of the experts" – Richard Feynman

Just because you know where criminal activity is likely, doesn't make it legal. For street crime or illegal searches. -- Drew

It's not only a dog-whistle term, it's also demonstrably bullshit in this circumstance. Your gig is not his gig. You literally have no idea whether Apple's policy exists, yet because it's obviously not the same as yours, you assume it doesn't. Come on, Box. Counter-example: I recently went to SD on business and didn't have to get prior clearance for taking my laptop with me. And yet my company has a policy about how you handle your data and devices - it just doesn't preclude taking it with you. But you'd assume that we don't have one.
