Back to square one. U.S vs Apple

[BurningDesire]

With the legal battle over one iPhone now behind them, lawyers for the Justice Department and Apple resumed their sparring in another case on Friday, as prosecutors told a federal judge in Brooklyn that they still needed the company’s help to unlock a drug dealer’s iPhone

I'd bet apple says no this time too, but is still going to ask how the FBI did it the first time

Can't the people who need to get into the iPhone just go to the FBI since they all ready did it? No need to keep bugging apple about it.

ikr. they only have to contact that israeli company again

 

[duffmmann]

Yeah, this seems really fishy to me. Why wouldn't they have learned what that company did the first time so that the FBI can just do it time and time again for any and all iphones they want to get into.

 

[grossaffe]

But... but... but... I thought they only needed help for that one phone and and that was the extent of it! I'm shocked!

If apple wouldn't unlock it for a large threat like a terrorist, why would they take the time to do it for a drug dealer. If they FBI wants to get into these phones they're going to have to do it themselves and learn that no means no

The ironic thing about that is that Apple has actually unlocked phones for them before.

A lot of people are speculating that Apple only said "no" was because the terrorist thing was big on the news, and Apple wants to look Pro-Consumer (although we know they aren't).

I can't say I'm too surprised by this, and I honestly don't have a problem with Apple unlocking some phones in the first place. However, After how much shit this got they should probably wait for a while to ask again. Let the whole issue die down. This is just making them seem pushy and giving them bad press.

The FBI don't need to worry about the bad press. What are you going to do? Stop buying stuff from the FBI?

crApple are a-holes thats why they say no. They are going against court orders so they risk being jailed for not doing it.
I hope they do say no and go to jail. They have screwed over the customer for many years, they deserve jail time.

Maybe then they'll understand why people want a jailbreak for their phone...


Sorry, couldn't resist.

*sigh*

Two months ago: FBI wants apple's help to unlock the phone of a known terrorist
Today: FBI wants apple to unlock the phone of a drug dealer
Somewhere in the future: FBI wants apple to unlock the phone of someone suspected of having doubts on the course of the government
