@angristan And Lain's heading there. Oof.
@thatbrickster @angristan we told lain to take a burner phone instead of his main phone
@kaniini @thatbrickster @angristan What stops someone from just saving an image of your phone and reflashing it after you enter?
@Rude You could panic button that stuff and restore a backup of it after passing through customs.

@kaniini @angristan
@Rude @angristan @thatbrickster i mean, if you want to fuck with China and the DPRK, be my guest, but we kind of want lain to come back alive
@kaikatsu @Rude @angristan @thatbrickster exactly. can't disclose any relevant intellectual property if you don't have it with you anyway.
@thatbrickster @angristan Lain's not in China right now, he's in North Korea... but he was in China first, and will return before going to Japan.
