  • A reminder if you restart your phone biometrics don’t work until you unlock it once with your code.

    If you’re about to deal with police, turn off or restart your phone so it resets to a Before First Unlock state where your information is encrypted and biometrics do not work.

    If your phone allows you to set an automatic restart, set that up.

    GrapheneOS by default automatically reboots after 18 hours of not being successfully unlocked. Devices in the Before First Unlock state are effectively not able to be accessed by standard law enforcement solutions. It also lets you set a duress password that will immediately make the storage contents permanently inaccessible, delete the eSIM, and power off the device.


  • And build up like that is why you should limit artificial insecticides like that around your house as well. That build up happens to each animal up the food chain. Bug gets 1 insecticide, but the lizard eats a bunch of bugs. Lizard now has 100 insecticides, and gets eaten by a snake. Snake eats a dozen lizards, now we’re at 1200 insecticide. Owl eats a dozen snakes, 24000 insecticide in the owl.

    Obviously this is simplified, but it gets the point across.
