Don't lock it down. Just buy a cheap phone, populate it with inane stuff like pictures of food and travel.
Create a puppet Instagram/facebook account and do the same, and don't install WhatsApp until you're past security.
Better yet, don't visit the US. Who knows how much more fucked up it will get as time goes on.
