I guess FBI will have to put up a fight with the phone manufacturer to unlock everything. It took a while, but I think that finally happened with the husband-wife Muslim murderers in the Pacific northwest.

I can’t imagine that the manufacturer would deny helping in this instance.

I can IF there is no warrant OR they are asking for the manufacturer to develop a master key to every phone the manufacturer makes rather than the unlocking of this individual phone.

Unlock one and you’ve unlocked them all.

FBI wants the crypto key, not an unlocked phone handed back to them.

If the manufacturer can break the encryption (they can’t) then it isn’t secure.
If the manufacturer is required to build an NSA/FBI backdoor, it isn’t secure either.

he fractured a kids skull, beat his wife, held a gun to her head, got a bad conduct discharge from the USAF, beat a dog half to death in Pueblo Colorado and had the dog taken away, and STILL passed the FBI NICs Check.

And they whine they can’t see in his iphone. I say it would make no difference if all the rest didn’t. Maybe if they took action on all the rest of it, they wouldnt need into his phone today.

As I recall, a company in Israel unlocked that phone. BTW, San Bernardino is in Southern California not the Pacific Northwest, if you are referring to the shooting rampage I think you are.

Really? Apple wouldn't help get into the San Bernardino shooter's phone and said it was impossible. Then the FBI paid a hacker who broke into it.

You are mistaken, thinking the manufacturer would help the police. They never did, even with the courts involved. The police got access via hiring a hacking group, and paying the big $$$$$$$. rumor has it $250,000.000. possible a little more.

Just saying.
