After two months of being in posession of San Bernadino terrorist's iPhone, the Feds are now crying that they can't get into the phone to access data because they don't have Farook's password.

I must plead guilty of having more confidence in the Feds than they are worthy. The most sophisticated intelligence agencies on the planet... bested by an iPhone. :rolleyes:

Jack would have just handed it to Chloe.

Chloe ROCKED!!
 
Let's see what is Apples response. I'm betting they will appeal and bump it up.
It was after all, a ruling by a 'low down' Federal magistrate .
Did you notice the iPhone didn't belong to the terrorist.
It's a County Health dept provided phone.
The NSA can most likely do it, but now that it's a big public story they wouldn't want to touch it.

You guys honestly think that phone hasn't been opened up already? Really?
I'm sure someone knows exactly every piece of data on that phone already.
 
I saw an interview with Apple CEO Tim Cook this morning. He claimed that Apple never wrote code to decrypt the iPhone.

I am not familiar with this particular terrorist. What was he a paperboy that threw someone's paper through a window? Currently, someone saying BOOO too loud can be labeled a terrorist.

Certainly there will soon be terrorist charges filed against those who pass gas in elevators. Well, now that I think about it, that might not be sooooo bad.
 
If it has a fingerprint reader..... (well.. you know where I'm going).

As for the PIN - I wonder if they tried "1515" or "3333". And "2222" might work.

That is so cute!
14 killed and 22 seriously injured.
I don't find that to be that funny.

I'm somewhat torn on this one. On one hand I want to know what is on the phone and it help catch other terrorist. On the other hand I applaud Apple protecting our privacy. Anyone thinking "Catch 22". Barry

Apple protecting our privacy??? If, in fact, the phone is a county health department phone, how can Apple decide that a non-owner of the phone has a right to privacy in that phone? Such a determination does not conform with the majority of search and seizure cases I have dissected over the years. If Apple cannot get into the phone, that's one thing. But thumbing their collective nose at the Court won't fly.

And yelling 'fire' in a crowded theater has a whole different meaning today.
