Correct, though it still is saved somewhere. Just like how TPMs in Computers can be exploited as well, this also can be. What I meant in my original comment was that the emergency mode did not clear that hardware chip's storage, which others said otherwise.
edit: corrected mistake according to ethan
Could you give us an example? I haven't seen such thing in Thunder before.
Oh yes, I immediately remembered portal after reading this, lol.
Thanks!
Point 2... if you pay for a email aliasing service, you will be locked in. What I suggest is using plus addressing. e.g.
example+83hdo72@example.com
As long as you keep using randomized ones, this'll be as good as an alias against automated and manual login attempts. It just does not hide your base email, which would be
example@example.com
Many email services offer some free aliases. For example, I use one alias, along with my main email that is only used for important services. Other than that, I have an alias that is used for online accounts. This way, your main inbox is free of spammers. And even if your main address were to be the target of a spammer, the automatic spamming software most likely will not chop off the plus part, so you can easily block that email with the specific plus identifier. Not as good as external email aliasing services, but at least you won't be locked into the email aliasing service. Bitwarden has a generator for such things, really nice tbh.

What a beautiful story. Just what I needed. I pity Polly.
In other words: bloat
I responded to that with:
That emergency mode that is activated by hitting the power button 5 times does not encrypt the storage. It merely disables the biometric authentication methods and possibly other things related to security, but it does not encrypt the storage. The phone stays in the AFU state and therefore the decryption keys are still somewhere in the hardware chip's memory.
