It would be really annoying if my cat could wipe my hard drive just by walking on the keyboard when I'm in the bathroom.

- giantg2 5y agoI turned off my auto wipe (number of tries) because of my toddler.
- jethro_tell 5y agoHad a work phone where that wasn't an option, when my kids were little they'd grab the phone and blackmail me with a wipe. Kind of funny but also a pain in the ass.
- joosters 5y agoDoesn't it take hours of wrong password entries before a wipe? The delay between attempts gets longer and longer (at least on ios), you can't just quickly tap in loads of wrong passwords and wipe an iphone in a minute.
- jethro_tell 5y agoIn my situation the company requires wipe after 5 or 10. I don't remember how long the timeout was but being blocked out of your work phone while you're oncall is also a massive pain in the ass.
- djur 5y agoTo be clear, I'm not really endorsing that approach, just saying that it's probably more effective than making "sexgod123" a secret land mine password.
