I think this is more of a technicality that's very subjective. I feel that "no" depends on the probability of something happening as well as how catastrophic it is. For example, after buying a lottery ticket, I can pretty com

You can wipe the master key when you suspend. However it will just mean that there needs to be some unencrypted storage to write down things like incoming text messages. Caller ID will also not work (or be stored in the unencrypted storage)

This can be solved if you start allowing the android framework to inspect other apps and expose these apis to developers. Xposed framework likely do this already (I'm not positive as I do not run it myself). My proposal is to start def

If i go from at rest (0m/s) to walking at 2m/s, I've completed an acceleration of 2m/s. Delta-v is common in orbital mechanics, which is often referred as "an acceleration".

Keep in mind, for a human mission, you want to minimize time, rather than deltaV. Gravity assists will take a lot of time, as you spend a lot of time waiting for the encounter. Furthermore, that chart is likely computed via a direct Hohmann

Which brings a good point: if you have root (and presumably you can even write a different kernel), how do you make sure the TPM can verify what's actually running on the processor when you can just fake it? Or better yet, if you have

If your device is rooted, and by that I mean real rooted (bypassing SELinux), then it can get the encryption keys as at some point the data needs to be decrypted and viewable by you.
