Comment on How likely is the US government going to identify and arrest every online user who have disagreed with the current administration?

I think it’s not feasible to search for anti -trump content and then track down the person, but is much more likely that once they have you they will check your phone to see if you are a dissenter. So any interaction with federal or local authorities will be risky from now on. I just saw a headline of a French scientist being denied entry after immigration searched her phone and found anti Trump messages. If anyone has advice on how to quickly wipe or lockdown a phone, PC, etc. please share. OpSec

GrqpheneOS has a second pin on your lock screen which, when keyed in, immediately makes the storage contents permanently inaccessible, deletes all Esims, and powers the device off. Graphene will remain installed.

There are also “panic button” apps out there that do similar stuff.

Then there’s the good ole, put it in the microwave, or taking a nail-gun to it

  Thank you. Instant lock and wipe before handing it over to your friendly neighborhood gestapo holding you gun point is just what we need.

  Not sure if wiping it right before the gestapo find you is a good idea tho. They see a wiped phone and would just assume the worst about the contents.
