Hi all,

American traveling to China for IETF, and making my tech prep plans (bringing a laptop, phone, tablet, kindle, and steam deck). I won’t bias with my current plans too much, but I do already run Linux+LUKS and GrapheneOS.

For those with experience, what tech prep would you do?

Thanks!

    Never been, sounds like an adventure! (Also a grapheneOS user, that’s awesome) How long is your trip?

    I’d be thinking about a dual sim burner phone and a laptop I don’t care about for the trip myself. Possibly unnecessary but I always err on the side of caution, often to a fault. I’ve never been and can’t speak from experience.

      Yea since my phone will be on me, I’m less concerned on the need of a burner, especially as I can use a second profile.

      But for laptop, I am considering a fresh build/take down on my old one, thanks for reaffirming that. The big catch is tablet, SD, and kindle, which would likely be left in a room and don’t have the same security features.
