iOS has a remote erase feature. Its also a leaked video and doesn't show which version or model. So it could be something that is already patched, or soon will be. Remember to always keep your OSes update.

  It's a bit difficult to remote erase your phone while you are in custody.
  Unless you are Norwegian royalty and are notified of your upcoming arrest, then you can wipe all you need.
