I just realized there are ways you could do plausible deniability. What if we keep a decoy partition ready to go? Pre-populate it with some AI-generated slop Facebook account, photos, etc. Keep A small random sample of your music files. etc. This is a feature that could get better & better over time. Don’t just wipe my old data; make my adversary unaware that there was anything worth wiping.

I could absolutely see this being a thing, veracrypt has an option to create a hidden volume, and the two different passwords open up to two different encrypted volumes. Also if you start writing information to the non-hidden volume, it will start overwriting the hidden volume and corrupting files without any guardrails which is nice

What if you were able to pick apps/accounts that mirrors to the decoy partition? Then you have real data, but all the private stuff stays locked away.
