„unlawful to knowingly destroy or damage property to prevent authorities from seizing it” - but did it fucking explode, catch on fire, or blew some fuse on the phone or in any other way prevented it from working? No, they (not him) just wiped the data. I didn’t know deleting files off YOUR OWN DEVICE is a crime. I need to think twice before I empty trash on my computer next time.

Anyone know if this feature is available on Murena e/os? Can't seem to find it :(
I think thats a GrapheneOS only feature. There are probably apps that do similiar stuff?
Ah that's a shame, but I hope they may implement such a thing since they are quite privacy focused.
I just heard about this yesterday and it's very interesting and fascinating to me, how the duress PIN worked if a situation like this arose. I cannot think that GrapheneOS team for implementing such a feature. Lowkey want the team's input on this. 🥰
