Perhaps. But the Constitution is quite clear. Reasonable searches are allowed. This is a reasonable search. Apple is saying they are above the law, and don’t have to comply when they are the manufacturer of the device and are intentionally firewalling data on criminally confiscated devices.
What all phone manufacturers need is to provide a service where they receive the device and retrieve the data at their facilities. Then return the unlocked phone back to the government after the DOJ pays the restoration fee. Problem solved and everyone is happy.
No it isn’t a reasonable search because the thing being asked for allows the Feds to crack any phone.
They also have to have many kinds of evidence sharing and certified techs, attorney cooperation, court agreed experts, judges to ok the possesses involved, supreme Court rulings on case law etc. No problems /s
