If the connection between you to your computer is severed, then your device will lock, shutdown, or shred its encryption keys -- thus keeping your encrypted data safe from thieves that steal your device

Where can i see a demonstration of someone actually wearing it, instead of just seeing the cable removed and the screen locked out?

I made a video of this (demo in Windows, MacOS, Linux, TAILS, and QubesOS) with the old DIY model here (sorry for the terrible audio quality)

We're currently working on an updated video with someone who is much better at video production than me; it should be finished in early 2024.
