    Leaving your keys in memory is the weakness that could potentially let authorities into your phone. This could harm people. If your phone has rebooted, and you haven’t logged in yet, there are no keys in memory. That means your data is encrypted at rest.

    For the sake of comparison, this was also implemented in iOS 18.

      Thanks for the voice of sanity. There are so many people freaked out by basic security measures that it boggles the mind.
