The DOJ and the FBI ups the ante in a new Court Brief threatening that if Apple won't unlock the Terrorist's iPhone, then the FBI will subpoena Apple's entire iPhone source code and completely secret private certificate codes and do it themselves! — PING!

Maybe they should send in the Special Man if they want it so badly.

What a ridiculous statement from the FBI. Apple can give them the source code and just change it. The only way the FBI’s statement would have any weight is if they plan to forcibly acquire Apple and nationalize it.

What are the arrogant G-men going to do, shoot Tim Cook in the back three times like LaVoy Finicum?

One might think that the United States Federal Government is setting up to nationalize the smartphone industry.
I'm having a hard time not envisioning Steve Jobs, if he were still with us, burning down Cupertino and leaving behind a sign saying "I'm leaving it as I found it. Take over. It's yours."

The FBI has been doing a drive to hire computer savvy people for the past couple years — waiving various requirements for people with computer science degrees, offering bounties, that sort of thing. I imagine at this point that they do have some talented people who could understand it.

Is it true that Precious Timmy Cook's *real* fear is that the police might someday be able to crack the iPhones of child molesters?
To: Swordmaker
The FBI is really going too far on this one.

Calling Jerry Rivers
There’s nothing on that phone (Al Capone’s vault).
Or just maybe, Trump’s connection to the evil terrorists is on there.
And 32 GB of other incriminating evidence (actual content TBD).

What are they going to do? Stamp their feet? Hold their breath until they turn blue? Have 0bama give a speech (that would really do it).

I guess the nsa is 100% useless. Evidence we can completely eliminate that POS agency altogether.
