Me solving technical problems without motivating requirements:

Can you just like have the graphene OS device wipe itself if it knows that it's going through a border and you haven't logged into the device in 24 hours?

Or maybe, Enter into a precipitous one false move mode, where it's just about to wipe itself if the 24 hours elapses, And it does wipe itself if someone doesn't put in a code the next time the device recognizes that is being handled, within like 90 seconds of being picked up?

Wouldn't be effective because would have to be implemented at hardware level which it's not. Unreliable at software OS level.

How would it reliably reach the internet.

No real advantage over cloud backup and way more risk.

There's already the reboot timer which works fine for securing data but not under duress.

Us citizens should use that.
