      Every phone, computer and SW vendor in the US is looking at the Apple case to decide whether or not strong security is too much trouble.

      @mattblaze If capability to assist was not in controversy, FBI had no case. Apple's mistake was in failing to lock themselves out *properly*

          @Snowden Of course, that would just reduce this to the previous controversy of whether congress should mandate insecure designs.

          @mattblaze Given the 1st Amendment, that would quickly become a question of whether or not they *can* mandate such. "Code is speech."

          @Snowden @mattblaze the fight is not about this phone, but the next hundred. It's the principle that there must always be a hole.

          @Snowden @mattblaze Why not hand the phone over to the NSA? Cuz it doesn't give FBI the legal precedent they want. Yea that makes since. :/
