Also, turn off face recognition, use pin only. #NoKings
-rb@heidilifeldman have an iPhone? 5 rapid thumb presses on right side button will disable Face ID / fingerprint recognition temporarily. No need to mess with settings, so it’s good if you’re in a hurry!
fogelnetThis works as well.
Hold the two buttons for 2 seconds.

What about still receiving SMS or notifications?
Aren’t notification services another way to track individuals that even phones touting privacy cannot prevent?
@Chancerubbage @dashrb @heidilifeldman
This isn’t about tracking as much as preventing someone from accessing your phone illegally.
If tracking is a concern leave your phone at home or get a burner.
@fogelnet @dashrb @heidilifeldman
It is just that I don’t realize how notifications are a chink in the privacy armor, just that it is.
And large groups could be tracked and digitally fingerprinted by those methods as well as any Bluetooth WiFi or privacy signal by someone determined enough.
But I understand the distinction of phones in physical reach as well.
Dreaming of dad jazz.@Chancerubbage @fogelnet @dashrb @heidilifeldman on android you can prevent notifications from showing on an unlocked phone (it's my default). It seems like you should be able to do the same thing on apple.
