+***** Disable Swap File
+Since standard Raspbian 10 (Buster) install involves copying
+unencrypted file system image to SD card which is mounted by the
+Raspberry Pi, system memory may be written to disk in the form of a
+Swap file as described [[https://ideaheap.com/2013/07/stopping-sd-card-corruption-on-a-raspberry-pi/][here]]. In order to reduce the chance that
+location log data is ever written to disk, swap file functionality
+must be disabled[fn:ideaheap_20130731_disableswap].
+
+Raspbian 10 uses dphys-swapfile to manage a swap file. It may be
+disabled persistently[fn:rpf_20190702_disableswappersist] by running
+the following command:
+
+: sudo systemctl disable dphys-swapfile.service
+
+To view the status of the swap file in Raspbian 10, run ~free -m~:
+
+#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
+pi@ninfacyzga-01:~$ free -m
+          total    used    free  shared  buff/cache   available
