While so many people try to come up with technical solutions for legal concerns, the method Jacob used was pragmatic.
You cannot be compelled to turn over what you do not have
If you're concerned about your digital devices while crossing borders, do not forget a viable option is to simply not have a digital device with you when you cross.
Put simply, do not limit your imagination to purely technical means.
Of course, there may be means to compel you to retrieve that data, but typically at border crossings your primary threat surface is physical possession.
