The court need only point to the fact you downloaded an app specifically meant to wipe your phone via an "oh crap" code.
I mean, I get LE and the justice system is given a lot of crap for being behind the times, but cmon now. This is slam dunk tier legal argumentation here.
I'm not even a lawyer and I'm pretty sure I could convince a judge on that point. If they issue a warrant for something, and you do something to what the warrant was issued for, you tampered with evidence. This is heavily frowned upon. Especially in the middle of a court room, right in front of a judge.
If you want to send a message via civil disobedience, all power to you.Just understand, you're still going to have to deal with the consequences.
I don't like it any more hand anyone else here, bit until you can sell a legislature on changing a bunch of this, in court is the absolute LAST place you want to make a stand on it. Judges are going to go with the least amount of reinterpretation to keep the system and Law Enforcement trucking.
Law is made by legislatures. It's just the way it is.

Are we now assuming PKI is fundamentally broken or that one were dumb enough to download an apk from a plain http site?
I'm not going to address the rest of the comment as I don't feel like it, but they'd have to know in the first place.
