Apple lied. You are attempting to assist them in the cover up.
I despise Apple, but I agree 100% with your comments.
I suspect the FBI leaned on some Apple programmers and got one to hand over one of the universal unlock codes they built into the operating system.
Once again, your claim Apple would have had total control is unfounded and based on nothing but sheer delusion.
The only one we see lying here is you and your ilk. You have posted no evidence for your contentions except your delusional and repetitious claims and your assertions there are words in the court order that are simply not there which no one else can find. What other fantasies and hallucinations from which you suffer is a subject about which I won't even begin to speculate. You are a sad, pathetic little person.
There are no "universal unlock codes" built into the operating system. If there were, they'd have been found by now by some of the best hackers in the world who've been looking for one and not found any. The solution was an expensive to implement hardware approach that is not-truly a "hack" but a de-compiling of the hardware code and then a rebuilding of a virtual copy of the phone to try the possible codes until one worked to unlock the virtual copy. . . Or alternately, to build a database of all possible hash codes the hidden algorithm can create from a four digit passcode and comparing it to the one they were finally able to read using a physical method to read the data without destroying the data. Still not a software hack of the system, but instead one requiring very sophisticated skills and equipment that can only be applied to one device at a time and it's a technique which cannot be weaponized to be applied to hundreds of millions of devices in any conceivable mass attack.
Based on what the FBI said in it's filing, and what FBI director Comey said.
Also based on common sense. Apple's made up scare tactic of "Oh my GOD!!!! THE FBI IS GOING TO BREAK INTO ALL YOUR PHONES!!!!!!" was nonsense on the face of it.
Again, your delusion is that the FBI pleadings mean anything probative.
And it is your delusion that they can get away with anything beyond that which they asked for.
No, what I say is based in the facts. What you say is not.
