Well it isn't, but that is not what he is alleging. He is alleging that the sky will fall and the Fascists will Jackboot us all the way to the concentration camps if Apple complies with a court order.

I am with you regarding this effort to force Apple to make insecure iPhones that they can hack into anytime they want.

Maybe people ought to think about giving the bad guys, both in and out of government the ability to hack into our phones to plant evidence on someone they do not like, or want to take down, like those false calls to police to get a swat team sent to an innocent’s house.

Would it work both ways, Swordmaker?
