   Does "search your phone" include any externally-hosted content that can be accessed by said phone?

      Yes of course. Basically they have ruled the entire warrant requirement for searches and prohibition on unreasonable searches and seizures is suspended within 100 miles of any border or international airport (which is most of the US).

         The question is about your data stored in the cloud (not sure if it matters that it’s outside the 100mi) not on the phone.

         Is the search limited to the phone itself and the data physically residing inside or can they open any door for which that phone is the key?
