Any changes made to the phone’s software, such as downloads, setting alterations, or new account creations, will be wiped once Maintenance mode is shut down.
Maintenance mode will persist until the phone’s original owner unlocks the device.
Traveling soon and pretty worried.
Will experiment with the maintenance mode!
Reset your phone Google create a new email to log in. Do not transfer information. Start fresh.
You do not want to have your social media, texts, photos, available for them to sift through. Use a burner phone.
Burner phone if you must, but that will surely put you in the crosshairs for further analysis.
Might as well go without devices at all 🤦♂️
Include several emails back and forth.
2. Turn around
3. ????????
4. PROFIT

30 years from now people will be recalling the kinda stuff some of us never knew

For now (to my understanding) they can only hold my device which is useless if it can't be decrypted.
“There’s a very practical assessment people have to make about what's most important to them,” he says. “Getting into the country but sacrificing privacy or protecting your privacy—but risking that you may be turned around at the border.”
Don't visit TrumpLand.
At all.
Make a point.
Visit Canada.
Or Asia.
Or Europe.
Remembering my 20 something me crossing the USSR border pretending to read a Brejnev's novel !
("The siren", if I remember well ... never read further than page 2)
However, I would download a few novels by Tolstoy (War and Peace, which I read as a very young child) and Chekhov (The Seagull, which is my favorite).
MAGA folks don't even value tourism dollars. The retort is "good don't come". A lot of us will finish exploring our fabulous country here in Australia, using Australian dollars which are pretty worthless overseas anyway.
The end, and most of us are sorry it has come to this.
Problem solved.
Where is the news? Nice account of what a friend does so what?
There was a time that wired was a reputable source now a socialist communist channel.
What a stupid post. Just turn off your phone when you cross the border.
We’ve stopped buying your products. And a lot of us will never resume.
Just waiting for you to blame the rest of the world, but never yourselves
Sick to my stomach even thinking about it. I didn’t want to go before because of the mass shootings. Now it’s dictatorship

👊🏼🇨🇦🔥
some people are sent there by their jobs
That's why.
Ofcourse some professionals may need to whilst others will have to cater to other markets over the USA
Big Shame tbh
Here's what you need to know.
How we come out of this hell hole is up to us.
And this is why I have (for years already) uBlocked all of MS, Metta, Ggl, Amzn & Appul URLs & moved all services & storage to non-US repositories.
PS- with Trump gutting the FAA it is less safe flying in and out of the states anyway
Police state? Gestapo? Stasi?
Definitely snowflake state
What I’m asking is whether CBP has any right to detain/examine devices of people flying domestically.
As if tariffs weren't bad enough.
#1: Don't go to the United States.
#2: If in doubt, refer to #1.
There you go, that was easy.
🍊🏌🏻💩🇺🇲
Don't go there.
Visit Canada instead.
Beautiful country, lovely people.
🇨🇦🏴
Worst case scenario, I'll adjust it to never visiting the United States ever again.
It's simple.
It's effective.
It's necessary.
