At least they didn't confiscate the material. Not sure if you had left backups at home, but that could have been a disaster!
i can't say anything about Canada or Thailand, but i swear something like that will not happen in any european country. have you ever been over here, Jim? if not - ask anyone from the US who travelled to Webmaster Access Amsterdam for example. And how they got treated at immigration. The ONLY thing (besides the usual things like drugs or weapons) that can happen is paying tax if you went shopping too much and "forgot" to declare it (or didn't throw away all bills). but besides "anything to declare?" you will not hear anything else than "welcome, sir" at any european border

a friend also always gets the "SSSS" on his tickets and I had the pleasure already too - entering the US today is like entering the former eastern Germany or Russia in the 1970ies
