Currently planning on a trip to go see family. And dealing with this bullshit has been on my mind a lot.
So far I have a list of todos for removing data from my phone. Not looking forward to it.
Have you considered using a burner phone or something while you're abroad?
I have, and I don't think it would really change all that much. Regardless if it's my burner phone or actual phone, the apps, contacts, etc I need to travel would all be the same regardless. So I may as well just make a backup of all my shit to my desktop, wipe everything but the necessities, and there'll be nothing for them.
