Canadian Denied Entry to US After Giving Up Password to His Gay App Profile

US Customs agents twice denied a Canadian man entry into the US after reading personal information on his mobile phone.

According to a report by DailyXtra.com, US Customs officers working in the Vancouver airport detained Andre, who claimed that he was visiting a friend in New Orleans, demanding passwords to all the apps on his phone, including a password for an email app and a gay-hookup app called Scruff. The Scruff profile has a line saying a man is looking for sexual contact, and the border officer assumed it meant that Andre was a “sex worker,” or a male prostitute.
