BlackBerry had a duress password feature to secure erase the device in the event of said password being used, and it would brick the device in the event of being aborted (battery pull). Wouldn't that be considered destruction of evidence though? |

alternatively live dangerously and default wakeup mode is to trigger the self destruct, unless the trigger is deactivated [by a password of course.] if the cops dont know how to use your phone and they brick your phone they have caused damage.
im not sure how well it would work if they plugged your "phone" usb port into thier equipment, only to realize your "phone" is actually a super capacitor device, with a charge level display. It could be sabotage, but we are developers and engineers after all so all sorts of prototypes could end up in the hands of someone ignorant of the device function. Im sure a warning "you dont want to plug that in there!" would fall on deaf ears but is a point in your own defence.
