From what I've read about this, it's unclear just what the FBI wants
done - reports are conflicting. It seems that the feds want this done
under FBI supervision in a government facility, which would give the
government the capability of cracking ANY Iphone at ANY time.
To that my response is "Not only NO, but HELL NO!
In another version I"ve heard about they only want to get around the
incorrect password lock so the FBI can 'brute force' the thing. I
have slightly less strong feelings about but still don't like it much.
