If I’m reading correctly, and admittedly I don’t always, Apple has offered to unlock the phone and give the data from it to the court. They are unwilling to give up how to unlock it. They say that it is to protect the consumer.
Well then, I agree Apple should not give the hack to the FBI or gov’t. The data from Syed Farook’s phone? Hell yes. And I believe they will ARREST the 3rd shooter soon. Too many witnesses report 3 shooters and I think the FBI delayed his arrest on purpose to wait and see who he talks to or meets with. Probably Farook’s brother or that Marquez dude.
And they are going to get it, from someone else if Apple caves.
As I said upthread in another context, the FBI being unable to get that data should be considered the price of freedom.
