I think this is a bit exaggerated. Europe is a free country, I travel
all the time across Europe with 2 laptops and 2 smartphones, no one ever
searched my data, and in case, I would not allow it. The only check that
you have, is passing through the security if you fly, if not and you are
in Schengen Area (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schengen_Area) you can
pass whatever border you want with train, bus or car even on feet (not
suggesting). And also when in not Schengen, it's quite simple to pass
the borders.
