Try to explain how the hidden content would be found? It effectively doesn’t exist until the password is in place. It isn’t hidden, it isn’t connected at all.

I’m no expert but I can imagine a scenario where an x-ray scan can notice an SD card embedded into the controller and flag that for follow-up

SD card the author says was added to offset the cost of eMMC but would presumably stand out as anomalous with whatever AI is classifying the scan

Yeah the SD card is going to be glaring for anybody with actual investigation into this device.

But saying that, the sheer amount of fake flash storage out there now, that's just a glorified USB-SD reader in a box.

I mean - if there are multiple sdcards in the device - and they each contain a hidden partition - how is the X-RAY going to determine that the reported 5GB (or whatever) isn't matching the devices actual 7GB (for example)
