Duress PINs on GrapheneOS
Great for protecting your data if an adversary gains your device .. but remember two things:
1. Ensure your data is backed up elsewhere because it won’t be recoverable from the device; and
2. If your phone is taken at a border crossing, the bigger issue than what they take off the device, is what they put on the device - if the device is taken out of your sight for a duration - safest to assume it’s been loaded with tracking/monitoring software/exploits - best to discard
I'm on grapheneos only for a few weeks. Didn't know about the duress pin. Thank you. Came from iOS and will never go back.
