> I'm not certain this has been thought through sufficiently. If an organization is in a position to confiscate the camera from a journalist, they're almost certainly ALSO in a position to extract the encryption password from the journalist.
You're basically dismissing the usefulness of encryption as a whole (on phones and anywhere else).
- penagwin 10y agoYou can MiTM a phone without people ever knowing. If police steal a camera they may as well take the key holder too. It could just be stolen, but both cases would be helped by uploading and deleting.

(Sure, if they can physically hold you, then they can hack into the server via your camera and delete uploaded pictures, but that's a harder task than breaking a locally secret based encryption)
