Hackers claimed to have stolen more than 2 billion records containing sensitive information including Social Security numbers, with some data reportedly leaked online.
I got a NEW credit card faster than my bank was able to reissue and send me a replacement debit/credit. By like half the time.
I wasn’t aware biometrics were more secure. My info is clearly out of date! Though I was also thinking of the forced unlocking of phones by, er…other people.
Police. I’m talking about the popo.
Good old Tasker should be able to handle the bulk of automating things like an auto-shutdown. Might still need to insert custom code BUT they have a community. A couple searches and verification that you’re not being a dumbass and downloading something malicious and wham bam easy - or manually type it out. I dunno. Don’t be big dumb.
Tasker ain’t obsolete yet, dammit!
Remember, folks! NONE OF THIS MATTERS IF YOU GIVE UP YOUR CREDENTIALS JUST CAUSE SOMEONE CALLED AND SAID GRANDMA WAS INJURED IN A MOTORCYCLE ACCIDENT.
Here’s a Naomi Brockwell video about it. I also used to avoid it, but that video changed my mind. I can easily turn off the biometrics if I’m going somewhere where LE might force me to unlock it (e.g. travel), but I can just mis-scan it a few times and it’ll force me to enter the PIN anyway.
Tasker
Yeah, that can work, but GrapheneOS at least has an automatic reboot option after so much time has passed w/o being used. I set mine to 4 hours so it’ll reboot at night, but I make it a lot less when I’m traveling. Everything is encrypted on a fresh boot and calls still work (emergency outgoing, and any incoming), so it’s a really nice bit of extra security for lazy people like me.
