But the employer dropped the ball and didn’t preserve evidence. So it’s Apple’s duty to cooperate with court orders while addressing the privacy issue by keeping secure the in-house backdoor tool which they already undoubtedly have.
There is no back door.
I’m not sure .. Rush had mentioned that the main problem was that the owner of the phone has control over it’s security .. not Apple.
Therefore, Apple would have to write special software just to be able to enter the phone and retrieve the data. And, if they have to write new software .. that leaves them open to all types of security issues.
Now, I don’t have an iPhone, but Rush does and has had for a long time. I’m just recounting his info.
