This is false. If you can image and wipe your phone on the plane before landing, and write those random bytes to a usb stick, the usb stick will appear blank, because encrypted data is noise. You land with a factory blank phone. You clear customs and get where you are going and restore your phone.
Substitute cloud storage for a USB stick if you do it at your departure hotel.
There are absolutely technical solutions to the implementations of tyranny. Otherwise we wouldn’t bother with encryption. Violence can’t solve math problems.
- maxerickson 2mo agoHow do you solve it when they beat you for having a phone that doesn't look like they want? Like whatever arbitrary thing they decide it should look like that day.
- sneak 2mo agoYou can’t solve that in any case, but that has nothing to do with tech.
- mathisfun123 2mo agoCorollary: this story has nothing to do with tech.
- solid_fuel 2mo agoSo you agree with my original comment, then.
- inigyou 2mo agoAll of your websites are missing the legally required Impressum, comrade. It must contain your full legal name and address. I'm serious, this is the law in Germany. It's also a great demonstration of a shitty law that people prefer to avoid complying with, which surely has something to do with the topic.
- sneak 2mo agoMy websites are neither owned nor operated nor updated from Germany. Don’t be confused by the .berlin domain - using that TLD alone does not subject one to German law.
