My RSA app accepts a PIN before it generates a passcode. If I enter the wrong PIN, it’ll generate a wrong passcode.
Do, I guess the cops will continue to beat me until I produce a valid passcode.

It was just an observation of a clever feature of my security token, as well as one on how futile it is if whoever wants a real passcode really wants it.

Oh ok, I misunderstood! Ledger wallet has a similar feature where you can assign a decoy wallet to a pin code.
