I now believe that the government already has access to the phones and the suit is a spoofing job to create the illusion that they can’t access the phones. They want to publicly lose the fight to ensure that current and potential targets believe that their phones are secure.

Don't believe that crap, RTV. There's no truth behind that. Every expert who had looked at what Apple has created here says it is not possible for the government to break it. There are no "backdoors" into iOS. . . and 256 bit AES is simply not breakable in anything less than more than astronomical time frames.

John McAfee said he could assemble a team of the hacker elite who could hack open this terrorists iPhone in three weeks . And he is right. Especially if the password is 4-6 characters.

MY PREDICTION: The Apple bois holed up in Cupertino will soon be jumping around like Mexican jumping beans. And jumping over to the US Department of Justice pleading to spill their guts on hacking open this terrorists iphone so they won’t be facing prison terms.

Too bad the FBI botched this in the beginning as far as changing the pass code. Idiots!

Given enough time, expertise and “unlimited resources” (can you say taxpayer) it has been done.
