Rush cited Edward Snowden on this and other people too..
Says according to Snowden the NSA etc had been trying to crack Apple decryption since 2005 without success

The Feds want to know what is on your cell phone, but not on the SoS’s official email.
Makes sense.

Of what value to me is a decryption key in the hands of Apple? I would have no expectation of privacy in such a case.

Sorry Rush but I say BS. NSA has had Rotten Apple’s encryption keys since almost day one. Now they are just trying to get Apple to publicly acknowledge that they “gave” it to them.

Apple has been QUITE INSISTENT about their customer’s privacy ... EVEN to the extent of making their position of PROTECTING PRIVACY to be a “sales point”!
In other words they expect their position of being VERY STRONG on this issue to be something worthy for their customers to know and depend upon ... so that they will get more customers. This is a WIN-WIN for Apple and its customers!

That may be something that came out of the recesses of your own gray matter ... but there exists nothing in reality, outside of your gray matter, that backs that up ... LOL ...

The same thought crossed my mind. Get everyone to believe they have secured communication, make big $...Resulting in a massive treasure trove of data. Make a deal with gov to keep their little secret quite with the promise of biggov favors...

Of course NSA may not have cracked them, but you can be sure they are working their supercomputers hard as are the Mossad and the FSB.
Reverse logic.
Has there been a huge sale of AAPL phones and pads to Russian and Chinese security types? If not, then they are cracked.
Has their been an uptick in iPhone sales to ISIS/the Middle East? If not, then they are cracked.

Russian and Chinese security is suspicious of everyone else ... so I wouldn’t take their actions as meaning anything other than that. As far as ISIS is concerned, I wouldn’t attribute any “intelligence” to their actions ... LOL ...
As far as how hard various agencies’ supercomputers are working ... I believe I will be dead long before they hack into what I have encrypted just from yesterday ... :-) ...
