Jokes on you, I encrypt each file individually.

Why would you keep sensitive data in a easily lost or "mugged" (as shown here) device? This is OPSEC 101.

How do you securely access sensitive info on the go?

You fucking don't access sensitive information unless you're in a secure area, nigger.

What should people who leave their basement do?

Fill your phone with furry porn, fanfics and erp logs

They shouldn't access their sensitive information while outside their basement.

Not take a portable tracking device with them?

That's a pretty common thing for muggers to do. That's why when I'm out in public, I stand off in a secluded area when I use my phone. That way, if someone runs up to grab my phone, they'll be less likely to surprise me and snatch it from my hand.

This is why I always track who's around me and determine how much of a threat they are while walking (based on speed, walking technique, numbers, age and associates)

Wait til you get back into your basement to access your sensitive data, you absolute to look e retard. Why the fuck you would want at sensitive data out in the open where anyone could peek over your shoulder to read it is completely beyond me.

Good on you user for remembering nigger survival 101. Too many people drop their guard near them nowadays.

Don't Android phones have multiple user support? You could have a regular user and a user for your private stuff and they wouldn't be able to log into the account that matters.
I always thought a cool idea would be to have a glove or hand implant with a RFID chip, which the phone uses to check whether it's in your hand. If it is it unlocks, and if it isn't for 5 seconds it locks. They'd probably just steal your glove though.
A low tech solution would be to stand with your back to a wall. That way anyone running at you can be seen, and you can at least lock your phone in preparation. It's a good idea in general.

What's the point of having it on your phone if you only access it in safe situations?

It's actually illegal by common law and the magna carta anyone who actually looks at the law can tell you this.

They don't, its a propaganda release to fear people into not hacking credit cards and making money off them.

No details about what the police force "recovered" are made public in the press release. Which makes many suspect that what they did find was useless anyway.

Lol, first world people.
Here it's actually expected for you to behave like that.

if they try this in america there's gonna be a lot of dead cops, and the shooters will get off on justified self defense because he thought he was being mugged.

of course, brits gave up their guns.
nope you'll still go to jail, (((cops))) will claim they yelled police as they were mugging him, community is still mourning the loss of glorious officer shlomo, please execute this deplorable cop-killer

AHAHAHAHAHHA

Get fucked criminals

...

you obviously never shot a gun. a 45 would literally explode a muggers head i've seen it. found the butthurt brit in this thread tbh.

So retarded it hurts

...

...

Hydra shok can do it actually but you libtards are too sheltered to even know what I'm talking about

just stop

Triggered much?

...

You have good taste in Himalayan cave paintings user-kun.

Right, like all the other times 'muh rights' were infringed and nothing fucking happened.

You McDonald's-munching, mobility scooter-bound, braggart Americlaps are all talk, no action.

Who is the say that in future you won`t "accidentally" be considered a criminal. When you ask for someone to represent you don`t be suprised if on one can. Tp paraphrase "First they came for jews, but I did not speak out because I was not a Jew".

It is unlikely that any sensor would be senestive enough to work.

>fyi there isn't one fam

Yeah, except "Americlaps" do stand up unlike britcucks who happily take it up the ass.

They try these thug tactics, trying to be innovative, they do shit like no-knock night raids and police have got completely fucked when the homeowner is a vet and proceeds to wreck the police he believes are a bunch of niggers trying to break in.

And it ends in either a dead vet and multimillion dollar settlement with the family, or dead cops and a homeowner who walks on self-defence and a butthurt police department.

Now they think twice about trying these no-knock raids.

If they try these tactics in America, Land of the Free, Home of the Brave, Graveyard of Cucks and Kikes, acting like they're muggers to steal phones, it'll end with dead cops.
