Is it a realistic threat though? You're not supposed to use your device after it has been compromised. If you don't _know_ your device has been compromised you are totally fucked anyway.
- barrkel 9y agoWhat if you're using a hosting provider and using full-disk encryption to stop the hosting provider from having access to your data by yanking the drives?
