As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.
Of course do you want to lock your phone and PC, but if you deleted everything already that won't matter. If you want to have some fun smash them with a hammer!
Reset your fone, computer, all devices to factory settings. Problem solved.
I heard that people can still get to your data even though your devices have been reset to factory settings. Hopefully not true though
then factory reset, smash with hammers, then waterlog all pieces????
Family can get access to your accounts on social media after you die so that's one thing and they might want to look for answers in your phone
If someone doesn't have the passcode is it virtually impossible for them to access the phone's contents?
Pretty much yes. The only thing to consider though is that the data on your phone is most secure when you have reboot your phone and haven't unlocked it yet. This is because on both iOS and Android, when your phone is rebooted, all data is fully encrypted. Once you unlock the phone it will start decrypting data which can in theory be accessed. But yeah just destroying your phone should do the trick too lol. If you're extra paranoid make sure to break the storage chip :)
Thanks for the info! So basically doing a complete reset encrypts, but doesn't actually wipe all the data?
yes but your data is already encrypted even before the reset. So really if you don't want anybody to access your data, just rebooting your phone and not unlocking it again will work assuming nobody knows your password.
There is a chance that your devices will be searched. If not by the authorities to investigate any motive for your ctb, then by family or friends to find memories of you, personal information, what-have-you. My best advice to you to protect your privacy is to delete everything from all social media/networking platforms, delete the accounts, wipe your devices and destroy the hardware. If you have a physical SIM card in your phone, break it. I'm unsure of how to completely wipe an eSIM but you can always factory reset your phone. Computers, take them apart and destroy the motherboard. So on and so forth.
There's no way to brute force phone passwords? Given that they're usually only 4 to 6 characters long, I assume it would be possible.
The reason your phone forces you to wait when you mess up your password too many times is to prevent brute force attacks. Not only that but the more failed password attempts made, the longer you would have to wait to try again so brute forcing is pretty much impossible.
Trust me when I say this. You can delete everything but they will find it whether deleted or not. They will somehow manage to crack into your device and they'll see that you deleted something.
the reason im hesitant is bc if i do that and then fail im kinda fucked lol
Who cares if they go through your phone? did you commit a crime? Most likely, nobody will even bother looking thru your old texts anyway
What I'm fearful of people finding is the fact that my boyfriend and I have had several conversations on my eventual ctb. He is supportive of me having a choice and will not stop me or alert authorities. I don't know if this can incriminate him and I do not want him to go to jail. I also don't want him to be ostracized by my family for not stepping in.
Different from your scenario, but I've always wondered if some people have partners who also want to die and they do it together.
