Our current political environment is fraught with danger, in both the real and digital world.
Indivisible National has published a guide with some suggestions for increasing your safety, as well as those around you. We’ve added the link to our website; each Thursday, we’ll highlight one of the suggestions.
Expect the Unexpected: Secure Your Phone Against Confiscation or Loss
In an ideal world you never lose your phone or have it on you when there is a risk of arrest. Of course, this isn’t always practical. Keeping your phone locked at all times when not in use is great protection, but some of your data could still be at risk if the cops get their hands on it. Here’s how to lock down your phone settings to keep your data as safe as possible, and what to do if your phone is lost or taken.
