In addition to what these articles recommend, you should turn off your device before going through customs. If you decide to power it on or not, that’s up to you. However, you should NOT unlock it for the first time.

Your phone (either android or iPhone) forensically has two states - BFU (before first unlock) and AFU (after first unlock). You may not think this is a big difference but it’s actually huge. After your device has its first unlock it’s much more susceptible to forensic data extraction. The BFU state on several devices is, as far as publicly known, immune to AFU extraction with Cellebrite. Naturally older devices or those that weren’t designed with security in mind are susceptible in either state.

Look into GrapheneOS and their user forum if you want to learn more about this as well as what devices have decent protection against forensic data extraction

tl,dr - power off and optionally back on your phone but don’t do the first login if you want to deny your device being searched or at least to make it as difficult and as expensive as possible for your data to be extracted forensically.

Sheeeeeeeeit

Yeah I’m not in it at either price point. I’ll for once be a patient gamer and wait until it’s reasonable or I’ll skip this one. I’m betting there’s lots like us.

Since she’s now doing the time, she might as well have done the crime.

Should have been more like this - Rubble Rubble!

It’s cool, trump is getting his so who cares about literally anything else?

Because they’re incredibly ignorant

You literally swear on the Bible before taking office

Haha and even more ironic here is that trump skipped this step this time and nobody said a word.

Well I’ve had essentially every console Nintendo has ever produced, but at least for now I’m not excited about the switch 2 for this very reason, I’m fairly put off about it.

I’m either going to buy a steamdeck or wait for the cost to go down (Nintendo is usually firm with their pricing though) on the Switch 2 before I’ll ever buy it or any games.

Especially while the US languishes under trump for the next nearly four years. I’m not going to have a lot of extra space for added expenses and price gouging.

Don’t threaten us with a good time, you POS russian hack. Can’t believe I liked your dad at one point.

I believe I found the switch but can’t find the price - IXR-G24044X-24PH

Guess I’m going to have to wait four years to buy a switch 2. Hopefully the McDonald’s diet makes it sooner.

To your point - meanwhile the uber wealthy will benefit from his tax cuts and weather the storm with no issues while everyone that’s not a part of that miniscule group will languish in the swamp he’s filling up for all of us to live in.

This is a clear to see recipe for disaster.

I’ve also heard it’s a one way street (dad pun) - meaning it’s not reversible

Private schools pay shit wages, they’re much less than public schools in most places.

And that sucks because all teachers get paid so much less as a whole than they should.

Now that special education funds will be gone due to that money essentially solely coming from the federal government, public school teachers are going to have a MUCH harder time teaching without the special needs students not having the services they need. It ends up severely impacting the entire class.

Oh, my most sincere apologies. I’ll just go grab that person that I personally disappeared and put her right back where she came from.

You’re missing the point, but it’s impossible to get through to someone who has no compassion for individuals, and would rather just hate someone because they’re adjacent to the problem. It’s attitudes like yours why the world is so fucked up right now. So quick to hate without realizing or caring who you’re dumping it on.

See my other replies in here on what I’m already doing, which isn’t unique to me specifically, many are doing these things. What else would you suggest I/we do?

Your inaction speaks volumes

Good men do nothing

Since I’m not just sitting on my ass and complaining or just throwing out Boondock Saints quotes without having some substance underneath it, your reply doesn’t apply to me.

I know those of you outside of the US have dealt with some shit in your own countries, help us with some good suggestions please! Kicking us, especially those of us trying to make a difference, while we are down, isn’t helpful.

My reply was to the larger audience, not just you. I don’t disagree with your thinking. I’ve already stopped patronizing businesses that support trump and his corrupt leadership as well as signed up at generalstrikeus.com.

However, we not only need to support each other internally like you mention, but we need support of our allies across the world to help continue spreading the Truth and support our journey to a better place.

Shitting all over us as a whole is something that is more harmful than helpful, and it’s something that everyone should call out when they see it.
