It would likewise be easy for authorities to beat you within an inch of your life and jail you indefinitely for "hidden communication with a bad intent" or something similarly inane. They don't need you to unlock your phone for proof.

"Countermeasures" don't matter when there're a million ways to terrorize you, your family, and your friends into submission. They just have to suspect you.
