Traveling to the US - How to prepare (startrek.website)

I'm traveling to the US mainland for the first time in my life in a few weeks.

I am not overly stressed about privacy, but I have read that US immigration can really overstep their boundaries. Are there any simple specific steps to take on my devices to protect my privace when going through US border control?

Remove my main accounts from my phone/tablet and use dummy accounts? Or just removing my biometrics?

They're arresting tourists from other countries for being pregnant?

They are not. I live in such a red state and I'm not sure I'd want yo visit as a tourist.
