    unless you use your fingerprint or face to unlock it (iphones and many androids have a key combo that quickly locks your phone and disables biometrics until you unlock it again with your pin or password. google it. useful in duress situations, but some manufacturers (in my case xiaomi) remove the feature. it doesn’t prevent the stealing of all available data on your phone in case your attacker happens to own a cellebrite device and takes your phone away for a few hours (almost nothing can prevent that, except grapheneos), but it prevents quick in-the-moment abuse.)















  • i don’t think you need to be a violent kid to accidentally shoot someone to death; that’s why guns are so insidious. it only takes a couple of simple actions at most to kill someone. it’s simple enough where people might not think about the consequences before killing somebody. it makes death easily accessible and not a very physical or straining task.

    i also would generally refrain from calling an unknown kid who you just don’t know violent, or passing judgement on the father for looking a certain way. stereotypes might turn out true, but they also might not.
