This is a friendly reminder that if you live in the United States or for some reason have to visit, you should turn OFF face ID and/or biometrics on your phone.

They ARE searching phones for any and all dissent against the fascist regime.

They CAN make you open if it your phone is just locked with face ID or fingerprint.

If it's locked with a password you at least have a chance to say nothing but LAWYER.

1. Before getting on flight to Trumplandia backup your phone to cloud.
2. Erase phone and set it up either without a cloud account or using a dummy "clean" cloud account. Only install the default apps, no social media apps, minimal (family, emergency) contacts, etc.
3. Present "clean" phone at border if requested. Nothing to see here.
4. Once past the border gestapo erase phone and restore it from your real cloud account backup from step 1.
5. Enjoy your stay in Trumplandia and try not to get run down by a Cybertruck.

@dshan how long before USA follows UK and asks Apple to disable the encryption?

@craignicol 🤷‍♂️ This scheme does not require Advanced Data Protection, or any encryption for that matter. It only requires that border guys see a clean and inoffensive phone that contains nothing they can object to.
