Last time I travelled to the US, I brought my old phone. It had plenty of text messages, a few photos of family and nature, and nothing else. They didn't check it, but I guessed it would pass the "not a burner" vibe. Now I'm wondering, though, how people would react to me having no social media presence (other than Reddit at that time, which I accessed via browser). Not that I'm planning to travel to the US ever again, but I wonder whether there's a market for perfectly inoffensive fake social media accounts.
