F*** Apple

[Kevin]

This was a bit different as I understand it. Apple was more than willing to unlock the phone. They were not willing to give the FBI the power to unlock ALL the phones. For that I agree with Apple. I could be wrong but that is how it was explained in an article I read back when that went down.

With that said **** the CCP and **** Apple.

You are misinformed. Apple refused and the FBI ended up buying a zero day exploit to hack the phone.

This actually brings out a point. We STILL dont know what the effects of having the internet are. Its still too new (funny I know) and only a few have actually grown up with it since birth. I have a feeling it wont be all good and probably only good in a few instances and we will be worse off for it.

According to AG Barr, but not Apple. Apple states they wanted the tech to be able to open all I phones. Apple stated in court they handed over everything they needed for that one phone. FBI wanted all phones.

“We have always maintained there is no such thing as a backdoor just for the good guys,” Apple said in its latest statement. “Backdoors can also be exploited by those who threaten our national security and the data security of our customers. Today, law enforcement has access to more data than ever before in history, so Americans do not have to choose between weakening encryption and solving investigations. We feel strongly encryption is vital to protecting our country and our users’ data.”

I side with Apple on this one. Now the China thing is choosing money over what is right and just.

Love or hate him he’s got balls of titanium. He’s got that serious ______ you money and doesn’t hold back on tossing it into play over even the smallest of things. Even if you hate him you have to respect his no holding back approach. I’m not sure what the future generations will think of him but I know what I think now.

Looks like Elon is in a meeting right now with Tim Cook over the comments made to pull Twitter.

The case you are citing is not the San Bernardino shooting. This article lays out what happened.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/04/14/azimuth-san-bernardino-apple-iphone-fbi/

"In mid-March, Azimuth demonstrated the solution at FBI headquarters, showing Comey and other leaders how Condor could unlock an iPhone 5C. Then, one weekend, the FBI lab did a series of forensic tests to be sure it would work without destroying data. The tests were all successful, according to the people. The FBI paid the vendor $900,000, according to remarks by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) in May 2017."

I also side with Apple on not letting our government backdoor their ways in - at least not easily. What they are doing in China is odd for Apple but not surprising with China $$$ taking over our corporations.

[Dusty Britches]

In order to do business in China, the companies have to agree to allow the Chinese government access to all of their technology, customers, and R&D among other things.

Do NOT trust any corporation that is heavily invested in China. They've already sold out to the communists.
