The tyranny of consumerization of affluence is everyone has a version of the best thing.Your used iPhone from five years ago runs all the same apps. There was a time this was extremely strictly delineated and I got to see it as a child in the transition. Cross-gen games were fake.

Oh definitely, it's amazing more people don't think of that. "Don't look at me while I enter my PIN directly under the omnidirectional security camera pls"

Anyway, if there is anything _that_ sensitive on your phone... get that shit off your phone ASAP and put it somewhere better. Download Tails and learn proper opsec.

Meanwhile the following scenario is far more plausible: someone already knows your PIN because they saw you enter it, because you unlock your phone about 300 times a day in all sorts of environments around all sorts of people.

Yes yes I know “they can force you to give your fingerprint, but not your PIN.” Guess what, they can force you to give your PIN. You are not a hardened super spy and fascists do not respect rule of law. If they threaten you, you will crack.
