Will I be stopped, you mean? Maybe. I certainly know people
who are every time "randomly" selected for special treatment 
when flying, and I know people who've been denied entry. 
It is really quite ridiculous.

I also know people who are afraid for their life so they're
effectively in exile. We also know a person who's trapped
in an embassy in London. Nevermind people like Snowden
and Manning.

Indeed, and if you are stopped, do document it, and advertise
this fact as widely as possible.
