  Or just flip on the wipe if 10 wrong passcodes are entered feature. I'm a little surprised that was mentioned in the article.

    As a largely security-conscious person, I'd love to, but there's a non-zero chance I'll lose all my data since my last backup by being triggered accidentally in my pants pocket.

      One of my kids picked up my phone and thought the pattern unlock was a drawing game. Guess how it ended :)

        On iOS that would be a three hour process, you’d need to have a very patient and persistent kid!

      It is not really possible to accidentally trigger this in iOS. After the first few tries there is a longer and longer delay before you can try again, so it takes wrong tries over many hours.

        It takes around 3.5 hours in total, so rather safe from accidental activation by pockets or kids: https://twitter.com/gruber/status/1000153761266970624 https://twitter.com/gruber/status/1000153761266970624
