One takeaway: a cloud account isn't a sufficient backup on its own. If you have to log into Apple/Google to download your files and photos, then they're at risk. Make regular backups to an external hard drive or something, and ideally have your stuff automatically back up to a NAS somewhere as well.
Also, after reading this I'm going to have to think about what would happen if someone stole my phone. I take it everywhere with me. It's not an iPhone, but it's still worth a few hundred dollars and it has all kinds of data and logged-in accounts on it. I assume if it was stolen at gunpoint, I wouldn't be in a position to refuse to unlock it and unlock some apps/accounts.
