Comment on Period tracking app options?
bogo@sh.itjust.works 1 year agoIf your concern for wanting to self host is that you’re concerned your government might attempt to access that data, then you should also assume they could get a warrant for that data and force you to decrypt it if it were encrypted at rest on a machine in your home.

That’s a very valid point. I would argue that if the concern is the government forcing you to decrypt the data, there’s really no good solution. If they have a warrant, they will get the encrypted data; the only barrier is how willing you are to refuse to give the encryption key. I think some jurisdictions prevent this on 5th amendment grounds, but I’m not not a lawyer.

Right, this is exactly what I was saying. Plausible deniability because you know you’re not going to be able to fight to protect the data when they come knocking.
