Thank you! 🙂

If I had a phone set up like that, and, say, ICE or TSA took it, what would they be able to get from it? And I know that legally they can’t make you give up your PIN, but what’s to keep them from just beating it out of you? Cops of any stripe rarely if ever face consequences for their actions, especially in the US.

Possibly a dumb question, but what exactly constitutes a “US-based digital service?” For example, does that mean everything on github is off limits? I wouldn’t think so (and actually I’m kind of surprised that so many projects stayed on github after it was bought by Microsoft). Me being me, I’ve started going through my various account entries on KeePass, and changing the favicon of the site/service with the flag of the country it’s based in (to the best of my knowledge). Many of them will be US-based, and this is probably unavoidable, but the more I can reasonably minimize the number of 🇺🇸s, the better.

Is that one a paid service? Have heard good things about it but never tried.

Signal is going to be a tough one for me to get past, since all my clueless relatives are on it…

I’m not hocking anything—notice the question mark at the end of the title. I don’t have any association with Cozy; I know nothing about them. Also, I’m referencing someone’s blog post, not endorsing it or necessarily agreeing with it. Like I said, Andy Yen’s comments aside, Proton Drive doesn’t have a desktop client for Linux which is why I’m looking for a replacement anyway. I’m keeping my other Proton stuff, for now at least. Maybe read a little more closely next time?
