I wonder why no one adds a „decoy pin“ which looks like it unlocks the device but secretly deletes sensitive data.
Probably, most people don’t see rubber hose cryptography as a real threat, and in most cases, they’re probably right.

Did you install a 5-point harness and wear a helmet when you drive? Could you be tortured for information by the police? Yes. Is that in any way likely at all? No. Taking reasonable precautions against likely actions by law enforcement is better than acting like all things are possible so no point in doing anything.
