An idiot who believed Apple when it said it had conquered the US Constitution.

He’s enjoyed 2 years in jail so far. Hopefully the Supreme Court will take his case and start to put an end to the high-profit encryption practices of Apple and others.

I hope apple -strengthens- it’s encryption. Encryption makes the world a better place. Government being able to read everything makes it worse.

Thems just the facts...

Two years he's been in jail by his own choice to NOT UNLOCK his iPhone. That is HIS choice. Not Apple's. . . yet you blame Apple, not the potential child-porn holder? How delusional can you be?

I see you are still as clueless as you were two years ago. This is NOT about high-profit. This is about technology of encryption being a binary question. It is either secure or it is not secure. Backdoors make it NOT SECURE. Our businesses and our government REQUIRE SECURE devices. In fact, our government required secure devices. You can't have it both ways.
