I think you read parent-comment wrong. My interpretation: unlock your phone normally at least every 12h. Only if you fail to do that, then the phone locks harder and you need to unlock with the non-memorizable password. Imagine the PIN/PUK system on SIM cards but with a timed lock-out as well. I agree that it sounds inconvenient though. I'm not that familiar with the US law system, but wouldn't a written down password be worse? With a memorized password it's at least possible to claim you have forgotten. Some encryption schemes allow two keys for unlocking, but they would show different content depending on the key. I think I remember trying that on TrueCrypt many years ago. |

It's not practical at all, but there should be possible to build systems that authenticate you only if you are free and doing that on your free will without any compulsion.
