I defend Apple's encryption and hope they will prevail.

Some know nothing in the New York State Legislature has introduced a bill to prohibit the sale of any cellular device that allows encryption that the manufacturer cannot decipher. That would prohibit the sales of all Apple iOS cellular devices.

Once you permit the manufacturer to decipher the encryption, it is only a short distance for the hackers to be able to decipher it as well. A backdoor for the good guys is a backdoor for the bad guys too. . . usually about fifteen minutes later. Generally the bad guys don't even have to crack it. Bribes are faster and cheaper.

“I defend Apple’s encryption and hope they will prevail.”

Same here. Their stance has been a good one.
