What is the maximum extent to which we can defend users of our software?

  Have a mode that allows users to selectively designate and delete sensitive data. Everyone has the feels over this border stuff and HN is collectively spewing the same inane questions repeatedly, but the reality is that people are more likely to get into trouble more often when spouses, employers, teachers, family, etc get to see things that weren't intended to be seen. We have airplane mode to shut off phone radios, why not a purge mode to whack marked data. On iOS, the most rudimentary level of this sort of protection is available with MDM -- you can configure a device to erase managed data when it leaves a building or campus. The device is still active and manageable, but the data is gone until it becomes compliant.
