Before you all go patting Greyhound on the back for this policy:
This is from 5 years ago.
They only changed their policy after being sued by the Washington State AG.
They were forced to pay $2.2 million for violating their customers rights by allowing Border Patrol to conduct warrantless searches in the first place.
It’s estimated that 57,000 people were on Greyhound busses boarded by border patrol, in Spokane alone, from 2013-2020.
Thanks for the added info, it sucks to know but isn’t surprising, but nowhere do I (or anyone else I can see E: aside from the single mention in the AP post that OP is commenting on, obviously) give props or even mention greyhound.
