So I’ll be traveling in such a way that I’ll be crossing the US border. I want to take a burner phone so I can wipe it, or have innocuous enough data. The problem: all my passwords are stored in a password manager that uses 2FA tied to my primary phone which will be sitting at home (along with other sites that use 2FA tied to authenticators on my phone).
So remembering passwords is out. And not having access to 2FA presents a catch-22. So what’s the best way to approach that?

Bad idea (assuming you write them down in plaintext)
The notebook can be read
tbf I’m not exactly sure what their threat model is, I dont know if theyre worried about having a notebook looked at vs online gov snooping etc
I was thinking airport searches.
Correct, that’s why I mentioned “crossing borders”
Yeah and the guards will certainly search any papers you have on you. Worst place for your passwords.
