FBI not sure it can help Arkansas, after all — most likely because the iPod and iPhone involved are not iPhone 5Cs running an A6 processor similar to the San Bernardino Terrorist case iPhone which is probably all the hack can break into. — PING!

Pinging dayglored, Shadow Ace, and ThunderSleeps for their lists, if interested.

Only an idiotic government would make it public knowledge that they could hack into anything.

We didn’t tell the Nazi’s that the enigma was broken.

Apple or anyone else shouldn’t know what we can and cannot break.

I do find it hard to believe on any level though that our government has more technology than Apple or any other tech company that does research.

But if they did, for God’s sake, shut up about it.
