A U.S. citizen has asked a court to throw out the government's claim that he gave over a passcode to border authorities that wiped his phone's data, opening up fresh questions about a person's constitutional rights at the U.S. border.
Yes. Like every time someone says “oh just do X because you have device Z” and you ask, “ok, but what about if I have y” and people come out of the woodwork to downvote you because you don’t own device Z, you own device R.
When it is said that anyone can do x, I generally take that to mean that the means and methods are available to everyone if they cared to look, not that everyone already knows how to do that thing.

Android doesn’t have as easy an option. iPhone users if they pay for iCloud storage would just wipe the device and when they get to their destination with wifi restore via iCloud.
If they don’t pay for iCloud storage they can still go to transfer or reset and kick off a temp storage where it’ll back up their whole phone for 21 days so once backed up they can wipe it an restore later. (It was designed for if a device needs to be dropped off for repair or traded in, but it would work for this as well)

My Mom’s VCR says the time is 12:00.
Can you mail it to me? I could really use it. I have like 1,000 VHS tapes and both my VCRs died.

I’m 40 and I have no idea how to do that. I could Google it but am too lazy
