The first rule of smartphone is absolutely no one else gets to use your phone. They don't even get to be alone in a room with it.

@RichFelker@SwiftOnSecurity My phone (Cyanogen Mod) actually does the photo thing if it's locked. -
@korvys@SwiftOnSecurity But you end up unlocking to do anything useful. Unlock should be like root. You don't login as root all the time. -
@korvys@SwiftOnSecurity Basic functionality should be reachable with trivial pin/gesture from lock screen. Editing should need secure login -
@RichFelker@SwiftOnSecurity So, like, photos on the lock screen, unlock that to get to phone calls, unlock again to get to settings? -
@korvys@SwiftOnSecurity Roughly. But I mean you should be able to do all kinds of non-privileged everyday tasks without the second login. -
@RichFelker@SwiftOnSecurity Yeah, sorry, those were just examples. -
@RichFelker@SwiftOnSecurity I wonder if you could build a custom lock screen to do it (on android anyway)? -
@korvys@SwiftOnSecurity I don't think so. It needs interaction with applications and the whole security/privilege model of the system. - 2 more replies

Again, think edge case. Do you want others to be able to make threatening phone calls, or take illegal pictures, without your consent, on your phone? If someone sues, are you liable?
