  "textContent": "The question to ask the advanced people on this forum is **what are the possible ways to have your device compromised in China or during travel**. Is that a fair assessment of ur OP?\n\nThe thing is, even if u learn how devices can get compromised, no one here can verifiably confirm or deny that ur devices were or weren’t. The safest bet i think is to factory reset the devices u brought with u, which removes any surveillance malware that might have been on there. But i hear from the grapevine that its possible for malware to survive factory resets. Maybe buy a new phone if you are privileged enough.\n\npalatablesalve8462:\n\n> change all my passwords?\n\nIts good practice to change ur passwords every now and then, even if u haven’t been hacked or targetted. Its even more so if u think u have been.",
