sophia_st I have read the Wikipeda article, and there is not mention of "require to give away password/encryption keys/unlocking whatever it is if requested."

If you do a web search on "UK laws provide PIN password on demand" you should find a number of summaries from UK solicitors.

Under "Accusations of oppressive use" you'll see:

Especially contentious was Part III of the Act, which requires persons to (allegedly) self-incriminate by disclosing a password to government representatives. Failure to do so is a criminal offence, with a penalty of two years in prison or five years in cases involving national security or child indecency.[23] Using the mechanism of secondary legislation, some parts of the Act required activation by a ministerial order before attaining legal force. Such orders have been made in respect of the relevant sections of Part I and Part II of the RIP Act and Part III. The latter became active in October 2007.[24] The first case where the powers were used was against animal rights activists in November 2007.

sophia_st I'm mostly travel in EU countries and have zero doubt regarding taking my phone anywhere except the UK

No one, gives a damn what phone or OS you have as you move in or out of the UK.
If you are on an agencies radar, they will be looking for you in any case, phone or no phone.
Normal Joe public, walk on by, nothing to see here...

I usually ignore things like that, but it's quite amaze me how in such forum as this one, that is not only a forum to discuss things around privacy/security, but also a dedicated place for a hardware(not so cheap to buy on left and right) and something you should invest your time into in order to make things right like setup etc, there are still people like this one, and he's not the only one in here who act like that... I really wonder if it's naivety or actually targeted action. Very weird.
