No joke. The government now has the right to march over to anybody they want and demand slave-labor out of them with threat of jail if they don’t comply? This is no different than being required to quarter troops during the American Revolution.
The reason Apple isn’t doing this is simple. If it were one phone, it probably wouldn’t be a big deal. The problem is that the minute they comply, they’ll be avalanched with these court orders and they’ll be a forced-employee of the US government. That is crap!
“This is no different than being required to quarter troops during the American Revolution.”
