This is unfortunate, but isn't this a fundamental trade-off for some of the privacy protections iOS offers? Or am I misunderstanding the situation.

  It was never locked before, not even a four-digit screen lock. I have no idea why this happened and no recourse.

    >and no recourse Just curious, the Apple Store was also unable to help you? Hope you are able to recover the data. :/

      Thank you. This just happened, so I have not been to an Apple Store yet. There isn't one near me, and it is not easy to get to the far removed ones. It may be weeks or months before I can visit one.

        This is just "I've tried nothing and I'm all out of ideas" territory.

          Actually, I have already tried trusting my Apple device to not backstab me and lock all my data. I've also tried reasoning with the device and unlocking it myself, which also did not work. I don't see how you can say I haven't tried anything. By the way, in case you missed it, this happened yesterday, I just happened to come across a thread which was relevant.
