That’s precisely what a duress password is for. Feature working as intended, get a warrant.
it needs to be reworked so that it’s difficult to discern to strangers if the phone has been wiped.
it’ll probably have to include fake phone logs, fake text messages, fake pics, etc. to make the wiped phone look like it wasn’t wiped to everyone except its owner.
So? My data, my choice and right to delete it, so fuck off!
He didn’t delete it. The officer did.

“They asked for my password. They didn’t specify which password.”
More like “sorry I couldn’t remember the password. I guessed, but I have a bad memory”
This is exactly the reason the government can’t force you to give your password in the US. They can’t prove that you remember the password.
If you’re in this situation, don’t say this. You are under no obligation to explain anything, and anything you say will be used against you (and will not be used to defend you). Just shut the fuck up.
