      The novel Little Brother by Cory Doctorow comes to mind.

      One PIN would log you into your real account, another PIN into a decoy account, and no indication of the other one existing.

      That does not exist in the real world.

        This is called plausibly deniable encryption, though you cannot hide the presence of the system itself.

        GrapheneOS has a Duress PIN feature, which wipes your phone if entered.

        It is real on pc, veracrypt hidden partition.

        I think it only is truly deniable with a HDD
