    This whole fbi demand is stupid. Not sure why apple doesn't just take the phone in, unlock it and hand it back to the fbi. That way they don't need to hand over the skeleton key for cracking every iPhone out there. Seems like a simple and obvious solution that doesn't risk the public.

    • Because it doesn't exist now and the moment it does no one will be able to trust Apple product securityprophetone
    • it would set them back years in security advances and trust building and could ultimately cost them billions in future lossesprophetone
    • also, once it exists do you think uncle sam will be all cool and never demand it again? they will make a case that they must have itprophetone
    • and that case could be made via a national security argumentprophetone
    • it's a pandora's box that will rain down nerd fire and brimstone on the tech worldprophetone
    • Yeah, I was just trying to find a middle ground between handing over the skeleton key forever and flat out refusing. I actually am not for it.monospaced
