> In law enforcement scenarios, a lot of the forensically relevant data is available in the AFU state. Law enforcement takes advantage of this and often keeps seized iPhones powered on, but isolated from the Internet, until they can extract data.

In Slovenia, devices have to be turned off the moment they are seized by their owner, prior to putting them into airplane mode.

Also when thieves or muggers rob someone, the first thing they do is turn on Airplane Mode or force power-off.

WHY the hell don't those actions require a passcode or bio authentication??
