Apple is getting mighty close to providing material support to a terrorist organization.

All these tech devices from iphones to computers to gps are all in cahoots favoring the bad guys over the good guys. Not an ounce of honesty or integrity in any of them.

Perhaps Apple got a call from Team Zero and said ‘don’t you dare hack into that phone’.. Hmmmmm, maybe Tashfeen and Farook had some gubmint training and support?

This has been posted several times over the past couple of days, and is basically FUD and propaganda. The phones the article discusses were all older phones, and are not on the latest IOS, which is what is causing the problem. It is well known that you can bypass the pin on older versions. This is not true of more recent versions of IOS.

Perhaps the San Bernadino terrorists’ iPhone has Obama’s contact info.

Just noticed that this article was already posted by Dumbgrunt about an hour ago. Unfortunately it was posted in computers and miscellaneous topics, not in News, where I think it belongs, since there is a lot of articles and discussion in news about this topic.

So, AM, please leave my posted article up in news, but I did want to give credit to DumbGrunt — though we both found the article independently.

There are a lot of news stories about this, so it really does belong there:

Typical daily news distortion. Apple unlocked older devices, but has no such existing tool for iOs 8 or above. Last I checked, slavery requires duly being convicted before force labor can be extracted.

My son was explaining over lunch today why this is very very difficult to do. He’s not convinced it is possible... One of the problems he described was that you only get 10 try’s and the data gets wiped. That rules out any brute force attack.

Now the new phones that look at your finger print, they could just cut the perp’s finger off and unlock it.

The FBI is not asking Apple to unlock this one phone, they are demanding that Apple give the source code for its encryption so anybodies phone can be hacked into whenever they want. They are not asking that Apple just get them into this one phone.

I do not own any Apple product for my own but after listening to Rush explain the whole deal, it is not just the four or six digit access code, but they are demanding the encryption codes.

Being an ex-crypto guy in the Army, it was easy to follow where they are hoping to go with this. I am standing with Apple to have one of their engineers get into it and give them the data inside, but not the code to get into any phone, by any means they want.

Apple would be out of business VERY quickly should I have a say.

If I used this info to argue with my liberal coworker he could prove me wrong. You need to tell the whole truth. You loose credibility with LIES like this headline.

Apple the compay7 who supports terrorism and those who want to buy an Apple should understand that their money will go to helping Apple to do this , as well as helping liberal causes, such as the homosexual, cross dressing agenda.

"Apple is saying it does not want to do this. It does not want to be in the business of being a method by which customer data is disclosed," an Apple lawyer said.

Someone needs tell the Apple lawyer the 'customer' (terrorist) is DEAD.

tell me if I have correct.....the legals want Apple to open the phone to see the phone logs, outgoing and incoming, there isn’t a digital log of the conversations....and so it seems to me, that scan of cell tower logs recorded data should tell the story....and if there are overseas calls, then international gateways should have logs of the called numbers....
