I really like his sort of thing, but realize that, like anti-forensics tools, there is a risk to having and using destructive anti-tamper triggers.

If the police actually think you're up to something, raid you, and your "cybernetic boobytrap" destroys your hundreds of GB of actual random data, they may still try and prove that you're a terrible person and destroyed evidence in court. Then it's up to a jury, and a prosecutor bent on making you look guilty as hell.

I'm not trying to dissuade exploration, but understand what can happen if you actually deploy this sort of system.
