Translated: «During the control, US authorities went through the researcher's phone and computer, where they found private messages between the researcher and colleagues and friends.» this is about a French researcher arriving to the USA where their personal messages were the reason to lock them up.

hahaha anacondas were a huge fear of us kids in Peru. I am yet to see one in real life, but I will be cautious either way! You never know!
