Stop Using Your Face or Thumb to Unlock Your Phone in c/technology

On my ditto (running GrapheneOS), the Lockdown option is accessible through the regular power button menu. When I press power+volumeUp it switches to silent mode. I don't know if/where I changed this, since I can't find the options when searching in settings.

EDIT: I just found it - in Settings > System > Gestures > Prevent ringing. I can either set power+volumeUp to mute the phone, or vibrate only. Nothing about the Lockdown option, but having it in the regular power button menu is good enough for me.

Spend some time finding a few good searxng instances. Also, the language setting affects the results a lot, so make sure to change it based on what you're searching for. I mostly use "english [en]", but for local searches I change it to my native language, or to the language of the relevant country.

If you then keep a log of who you told what, it'll be easier to keep track of which companies distributed "your" info.

Try a session manager add-on. In the list view, it's easier to close the irrelevant ones, then save the important ones under a meaningful name, never to be restored - but just knowing it's there if needed brings peace to mind, at least for me.
