Attorney General William P. Barr and FBI Director Christopher A. Wray hold a news conference on the Pensacola shootings. On the morning of Dec. 6, 2019, a terrorist shooting occurred at the naval base in Pensacola, Fla., killing three U.S. sailors.
Still nothing on Las Vegas?
Wray and Barr demolishing Apple!!
They “unlocked” a terrorist’s TWO Apple iPhones...or claim to have done so, after the company refused to do so. Big news.
This guy Wray has some big, brass ones, doesn’t he.
But, honestly, he is a rotten LIAR.
President Trump should issue an executive order to Apple that any future request to open phones and refusing will result the arrest of Gates and closing apple. This communists prick needs to be destroyed for not assisting in the fight of terrorists.
??? What’s Gates have to do with Apple?
The broken open the iPhone? I doubt it.
Unless they accessed the terrorist’s iCloud account, or the idiot used an easy 4-digit passcode, or had some old iOS version. Maybe then.
If they hacked the Secure Enclave and local key, this would be major news.If they broke 256-bit AES key encryption in less than several trillion years they were really lucky or it would mean a Nobel Prize in Math type accomplishment.
I hope it was a compromised device, side-channel attack or some other legerdemain.
If not, then I fear Apple is lying when they say they don’t have your passcode or key and there’s no way to bypass needing the local key to access your local data.
Maybe Apple has a secret way to defeat the incorrect guess time delay and 10 guesses lockout.
There was such a way at one time, used to crack the CA terrorists phone IIRC, but didn’t Apple close that loophole?
LOL! He’s a dirtbag...arrest him anyway.
> ??? What’s Gates have to do with Apple?
Many patents cross-licensed.
And at least long ago, MS had a significant stake in Apple.
FBI doesn’t like Apple’s policy.
But it’s entirely plausible that the lack of back door is in part a _response_ to FBI corruption. That story goes back a long time.
However Barr’s point about Apple’s subservience to China and other dictatorships wins here.
