Apple Vs the FBI

[BurningDesire]

​

Recently Apple has sent a letter to it's customers. On Tuesday a Carolinian Judge ordered apple to assist with unlocking the iPhone 5c for one of the the San Bernardino shooters Syed Rizwan Farook. In the letter it says. We are challenging the FBI's demands with the deepest respect for American democracy and a love of our country." It also seems one of the Google bosses and the CEO of Whatsapp are some of the major brands who respect Apples decisions on fighting back.

Here is what is to be said from Google Boss Sundar Pichai

“We know that law enforcement and intelligence agencies face significant challenges in protecting the public against crime and terrorism. We build secure products to keep your information safe and we give law enforcement access to data based on valid legal orders. But that’s wholly different than requiring companies to enable hacking of customer devices & data. Could be a troubling precedent.

”

Here is what the creator of Whatsapp. Jan Koum had to say on the situation

“I have always admired Tim Cook for his stance on privacy and Apple’s efforts to protect user data, and couldn’t agree more with everything said in their customer letter today,”

Also NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden has also backed Apple

"The @FBI is creating a world where citizens rely on #Apple to defend their rights, rather than the other way around. https://www.apple.com/customer-letter/ …"

FBI vs Apple what does the FBI Want?

The FBI wants apple to make it so the phone does not crease it self[ after ten failed password attempts.

(which I didn't even know was a thing)

The FBI wants it to be possible to brute force login combinations

The FBI does not want delay. You know when how you enter a iPhone password wrong it shows that red bubble with time. The FBI also wants that removed

Who do you think will win in this FBI vs Apple debate.

Apple protecting criminals. Just great.

Thanks, Snowden. If it weren't for you the NSA would have forced Apple to do it in secret and install it on every iPhone out there.

Both sides have good points, I'm curious how this plays out. "National Security vs Privacy"

It's more like "National Security Vs National Security".
Troy Hunt did a good article, probably the best I've seen

I've never seen a terrorist in person in my entire life. Have you? But I do have government agencies controlling almost every aspect of my life. From medical care to having to work and pay taxes. Which is the bigger threat to liberty?

 

[Saiyan Lusitano]

I've never seen a terrorist in person in my entire life.

And how would you know? Only if that terrorist was on most wanted lists but other than that, you wouldn't think much of him/her.

1984, here we go

Ok, no terrorist has ever influenced my life. I have never felt threatened, or had any real fear of myself or my friends/family being the casualties of an attack. I have, however, been greatly effected by the terrorist paranoia and the infringing policies it has spawned.

This brings up a really good point as well. The term terrorist is defined as a person/persons who use violence and intimidation in order to coerce for political reasons. So, I'm still pretty confident that I've never run into a 'terrorist', maybe I've seen a religious radical without knowing it, but until they do something they're just people. Who's to say that anyone, including you, doesn't have a breaking point that would spawn violence in retaliation to some unfair policy. Everyone on this planet could be a potential terrorist. But that still doesn't convince me to hand my life over to any organization in trade for the illusion of security. Especially one that uses war (an act of violence) to coerce other governing bodies (political purpose).

lol seriously? what a moron

 

[RustInPeace]

I don't know much about the situation, but for the first time ever, I'm on Apple's side. I don't know, the perpetrators are dead, they acted on their own volition, inspired by terrorists. Is it necessary to open up a phone for clues and such?

so life is that black and white. every media outlet is bad... every person that works for a big company is bad. every person which is selected by a person to be in government is bad. every person who voted for some one to be elected is bad.


so 99% plus of people are bad.

mentally retarded

I expect people to have basic reading comprehension skills too, but life is hard.

So by your logic criminals/terrorists deserve to have privacy and then who knows when they attack.
