The exact circumstances around the search are not known. But activist Samuel Tunick is charged with deleting data from a Google Pixel before CBP’s Tactical Terrorism Response Team could search it.
So maybe you can do something that relies on them fucking it up. Set the lock to, for example, 43o1. Set the duress pin to 4301.
If asked for the pin, say “four three oh one”. Chances are good they’ll interpret the “oh” as a 0. They can play back any recordings they have as evidence, and you’ll clearly be on record saying something that was not the pin they typed in. You did not mislead them.

This is actually some ridiculously smart advice. Do they have alphas in unlock code?
Looks like yes, you can use a duress password, which to me implies alphas.
