    goooooo big government gooooo!!!

    nice, gimme :smiley:

    I'm conflicted but.....oh goddammit, if I can believe Rubio.....what's really being asked is "please disable the phone will melt down feature so we (FBI) can try to crack it".....not "unlock it for us"
    first off, i would never believe the man who made the first small penis joke in a presidential campaign in american history about anything. second, for some reason i view both requests as ultimately the same. the end result is the same, only the means are different.

    "Slippery slope arguments are always attractive, but I suppose you could say, 'Well, Apple's engineers have this in their head, what if they're kidnapped and forced to write software?' That's where the judge has to sort this out, between good lawyers on both sides making all reasonable arguments."

    "Mistake"


    WASHINGTON — The head of the F.B.I. acknowledged on Tuesday that his agency lost a chance to capture data from the iPhone used by one of the San Bernardino attackers when it ordered that his password to the online storage service iCloud be reset shortly after the rampage.

    “There was a mistake made in the 24 hours after the attack,” James B. Comey Jr., the director of the F.B.I., told lawmakers at a hearing on the government’s attempt to force Apple to help “unlock” the iPhone.

    Just saw on the news that blackberry handed over the encryption key that the RCMP can use to essentially unlock any blackberry, this was done 6 years ago...and they've never updated the code since. So much for the argument that blackberries are secure.
