Yeah, we have a country list with different security levels. The company issued laptops are only allowed in some countries, for other countries you get a special travel laptop. Not sure if China is not just entirely black-listed. Certainly just working remotely from China is a no-go. Business trips are probably okay under some conditions.
Yeah, even crossing (or just existing within a couple hundred miles of) a US border, even as a US citizen, you give up almost all privacy and rights against search and seizure including personal "papers" stored on any storage device to border patrol and customs agents. It's crazy the freedoms and protections people have voted away in the name of security theater and convenience.
