I understand that, but if a hacker gets into your PC or someone takes it from you while it is logged in then that is like someone walking into your house and seeing you naked because the door has to be unlocked to get in the house.
Drive encryption is only one step towards a peivate and secure system. You can choose a middle ground such as limiting logs to 3 days if you prefer.
You don't have to. You can use someone elses instance, just as you are on Lemmy. If the instance you pick goes to shit then you can move to another one.
I think you are right. My post is simply a PSA to let people know that clicking forget on a Wi-Fi network or uninstalling a Flatpak does not remove all traces.
My scenario is also not specifically crafted; it is what happened to Ross Ulbricht.
If someone takes your laptop while it is unlocked rhey can see the logs. It is dangerous to keep them on if you are somewhere like China and use your laptop in a public space.
I have only posted it twice. If you've seen it multiple times that's either because you've scrolled to the same point in your feed or there are repost bots around.

They turn off file history in the DE settings and always use incognito mode so they think their PC is amnesic except for the files they explicitly save, however it is not.
If a Cellebrite can dump the storage of a locked iPhone, intelligence agencies almost certainly can grab your logs.
I think the answer is AV1. You can get good quality video into 500 NB per hour which is easily affordable with unobtrusive ads like a banner at the bottom of the app and a video ad that can be swapped away every 10 videos.
You probably used a VPN or privacy browser. Social media platforms are terrified of bots and will punish a poor Recaptcha V3 or similar score without telling you.
