[ARCHIVED THREAD] - thanks apple (Page 2 of 4)

Was this individual a 'known' terrorist? Is that was the case, what was he doing here training with our air force? This is a tough question. When is privacy trumped by protecting the lives of American citizens in the near or distant future? Or when is the privacy of a US citizen trumped by protecting the lives of American citizens in the near or distant future? Or when is the privacy of a non-US citizen trumped by protecting the lives of American citizens in the near or distant future? Or when is the privacy of a US citizen trumped by protecting the lives of citizens of a country that is an allly? not an ally? |

He's not a US Citizen. This wasn't a blanket ask. .Gov gives exceptions and exemptions all the time. Why not a one time deal for this? meh. |

This guy had already shot up the joint when Apple was asked for the help. It's not at all the same thing. |

Quoted: This is the First Amendment equivalent to the "I'm pro Second Amendment, but..." You either believe in freedom or you don't. disagree. they gov didn't need to have a back door. only apple needed to, and could have turned over the info without an ask. no US citizens impacted. terrorist in jail. get both. |

Riiiiight... So if Apple built in a back door, who gets to decide who's devices they hack into for the gov? |

If you think Apple is so dangerous you better open your ignorant eyes because Apple ain't even in the same league as Google/Android/Alphabet when it comes to privacy. |

If they built a back door and the government hacked and used it, APPLE would be the ones getting screamed at for selling out their users. And potentially being sued to oblivion for it. Frankly what disturbs me the most about this is how little time it is taking the government to break the encryption on the phones. What happened to the 10,000 years to break the encryption that the security gurus were talking about a few years back? Apple needs to up their standards. |

The crypto itself might take that long to break. But if you can't secure the key sufficiently it won't matter. |

Quoted: BS. There is nobody in the FBI that would ever abuse their power. Quoted: Quoted: If Apple creates a backdoor it will be used against US citizens too. BS. There is nobody in the FBI that would ever abuse their power. Wife - Why are you laughing so hard? Me - Just this Internet thing I read. |

Originally Posted By Hollywood_Shooter: Yes...seething hate. The real irony here is that I didn't even start this thread. I was hacked. Not sure about you but it was more the "I fuckin' HATE apple phones with a passion" kind of person. They have a life's cause to hate the products of a company. It's like collecting cats I think. Their hate blinds them. They have no rational understanding of the product or where it fits in the market place but they hate it with "passion". They don't understand privacy, certificate authorities, or public keys but KNOW Apple is to be fucked. Show me on the doll where this manufacturer of consumer products touched you. I was born without that affliction and suffer neither the excessive hate for or love of any manufacturer of consumer goods. You got hacked? OK I'm changing your password on your login now.

Their business, their rules. Don’t like it, go create a trillion dollar tech company and create your own backdoor for the US government. |

IIRC of what I read in the public the FBI hires the job out to an Israeli company. Any password can be recovered in a few days. You just need the person with the password, a pair of socks, a quiet place, and a padlock. You put the padlock into the sock and beat the person with the lock-in-the-sock until they give the password. |

Once a backdoor exists, it is in the wild. To believe otherwise is sheer folly. |

Oh look, someone who doesn't know how math or software/hardware encryption works. |

If you're willing to spend a little more I've found that a pipe wrench applied to the kneecaps to be a wonderfully efficient password cracking method. |

I think. maybe not. eta: directed @ no one in particular. Weird, the wuflu didn’t stop me from leaving my house and doing what I wanted to do.... There are plenty who protested against their rights being infringed, you are part of the other group who are ok with giving up yours and you are too blind to see it. That’s ok, people like WHitler are doing things for your safety. |

IIRC we ended up paying an Israeli company to hack the phone. I agree with Apple on this. Somebody has to stand up for our rights. |

you know -- Franklin most likely didn't say it. most likely. |

Oh so now its okay that a faceless corporation gets to decide who's rights are violated? You are way the fuck off base here. |
