            Its more about compartmentization.

            In this scenario, you’re not trying to hide the fact that the burner belongs to you. You are pretending that it’s your main device and everything on there is all the data you have. And therefore, concealing the fact that all your anti-government data is on a separate device in your home country.

            They think the burner if your main device, and that’s the point.
