I have a question for the #DeltaChat crowd: What if someone has a quick access to one of my devices, let's say I forget to lock my phone or laptop and an attacker adds their phone as a secondary (eldritch.cafe)

I have a question for the #DeltaChat crowd: What if someone has a quick access to one of my devices, let's say I forget to lock my phone or laptop and an attacker adds their phone as a secondary device to my profile. Is there any mitigation possible? Could I realize it? Could I disable their access?

@lou_de_sel highlight from previous answer about how to notice if someone took your profile (mainly if it is a non-professional spy but just some toxic partner):

you would notice because some messages you didn’t read are not notified and appear as already read
