To their credit, Apple has attempted to resist forced decryption of their devices. I realize that crediting Apple for anything is very difficult for you.
I don’t care what they did with their phones.
They, along with MS, Google, Twitter, Facebook, and the rest have poured their cash and support into prying the borders wide open, and allowing God knows what across it. This is not counting their censorship and media manipulation efforts.
So save me the fan boy crap. They are all rats, and no amount of shiny toys they dangle out there will make me not see that their other hand is holding a gun at the back of our heads.
So no they get no credit from me, and I don’t admire any of them.
