Proposal: data on cloud, device wipe while going thru customs (See related: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49063022)

Let's say you're using GrapheneOS and saving a device backup to a home server. You can wipe the device as the Journalist in (link above) did while entering the country, and restore from your backup after moving through customs.

I'm aware this is a technical soln to a social problem, but depending on the outcome of the case in (link above) I do think it's workable.

Would anybody be interested in contributing?
