Lockdown mode in Android 15 protects your phone from 'juice jacking'
www.androidauthority.com Lockdown mode in Android 15 protects your phone from 'juice jacking'
When lockdown mode is enabled in Android 15, USB data access will be disabled, preventing potential "juice jacking" attacks.
Points taken from article:
- Android 15 is adding a built-in mechanism to protect your device from “juice jacking” attacks.
- Charging will be allowed when lockdown mode is enabled in Android 15, but USB data access will not.
- Juice jacking is a largely theoretical problem you don’t really need to worry about, but it’s still nice that Android will protect you against it.

This can also be practical in places where the police can force you to unlock your phone with biometrics but not with the PIN.
Ever since I've seen the police here force people to delete the videos of them abusing citizens, I have been very wary of biometric identification.
So far my 'emergency' procedure would be to restart my phone, as it's asking for a PIN after a reboot.
