Do we let one company decide this is how investigations are going to be conducted?"

This arrogant bitch thinks she is the law?

I’m not sure what to make of this. My son works for Apple, and what they’re telling the employees is that they’ve decrypted phones before (with a court order), and are willing to do so in the San Bernardino case as well, but that the government is holding out, demanding a universal software tool where the feds can crack any iPhone on their own discretion. If that story is correct, I can certainly see why Apple is fighting it, but surely the court proceedings are public record, and it would be getting out into the public if that were the story. But OTOH, if they’re lying to the employees, you’d think that would come to light pretty much immediately as well. I can’t figure out what the real story is.

‘Do we let’? I mean, really, the hubris of government employees is reaching historic levels. Psst: WE LET YOU DO THINGS. That’s how this works; WE the PEOPLE grant certain powers to the government.

And people wonder why Trump leads...

STFU Loretta Lynch. Yes, it’s all about us, which is why all sane Americans oppose your grotesque powergrab.

I don’t think she is going to get a favorable response at RSA.
RSA is for tech professionals fighting internet infiltration both foreign and domestic.

They don’t respond to verbal threats.
They live fighting real threats daily.

If I were Apple, I would develop the tool to retrieve the data. But I would NOT give the government the tool. Period. If the government wants the data, hand the phone to Apple, let Apple unlock and retrieve the data, then let Apple insure their tool is not handed to the government.

I despise this government, and it includes both parties, for preferring to spy on regular citizens, groping grannies and children, trying to abridge our Second Amendment right, and generally attempting to take complete control of our lives and harass us, instead of doing the simple, common sense things which would work, like profiling people who are obviously in the category of potential terrorist, or stopping the revolving door on letting violent criminals put of prison and kept away from the innocent, or allowing the police to be proactive where the crime is, which statistically is where the minorities are.

That they prefer to spin their wheels doing nothing constructive to find and catch potential terrorists and criminals while steadily increasing their harrassment of regular citizens and encroachment of our freedom, should tell us all that making inroads into catching and holding criminals and terrorists isn't even their real agenda at all, Their real agenda is to incrementally take control of our lives until it's complete, harass and intimidate us, and leave us at the mercy of armed criminals who laugh and scoff at the law, while making us dependent upon government LE which may or may not save our lives.

This government is despicable, and complicit-all of them-in their attempts to enslave us while trying to force our dependence on our defense from criminals and terrorists upon an unreliable government using "political correctness" as a tool to put us in this untenable position.

You know, the federal government has the right to regulate an industry, and require that a government accessible back door be added for the sake of public safety in stopping a terrorist. We require airbags and seatbelts for all automobiles by statute for public safety. But the judiciary is not eligible to require this. Only the legislature (with presidential signature) can make a statutory requirement like this.

Cook has been very helpful with China’s “cyber security” issues. In China cyber security means that they want backdoors and keys so they can keep an over watch of potential trouble makers. They don’t want anymore Tiananmen Squares.
