Apple likely knows exactly how the FBI broke into the phone.
Apple, Microsoft etal have been in bed with NSA and other federal agencies for many years.
Their claims of protecting consumer privacy are total and complete lies.
You have _no_ reasonable expectation of privacy.
Fuggedaboutit.
The FBI will arrange for the hack to be “accidentally” made public and Apple users will be hacked to the point that Apple will take steps to block the hacks.
As for my opinion, I said I would never own one. All I want is a telephone, but to show my respect for Apple's decision not to be bullied, I bought the most expensive Iphone they make.
We would be so much better off is other major corporations would tell the government to stuff it. Instead because they are terrified at the possibility of tax audits, OSHA audits, EPA harassment, blacklisted from government contracts, NLRB rules, etc., they give up their rights and sadly ours as well.
