      Note: This does not, technically, conflict w/ what DOJ said in Friday's filing. (See the parenthetical in (3).)pic.twitter.com/w4FPhg846S

      Tho, certainly the ~implication~ of DOJ's parenthetical is that San Bernardino Health Dep't, owner of the phone, did the reset on its own.

      San Bernardino, tho, stated specifically that this was done at the FBI's request. http://www.buzzfeed.com/johnpaczkowski/apple-terrorists-appleid-passcode-changed-in-government-cust#.elJO0Yz21K …pic.twitter.com/UurUIheIrx

          @chrisgeidner If we assume the FBI is technically competent, it sounds like they didn't want to be able to access the phone's data unaided.

          @tomsj @chrisgeidner Too smart to accidentally screw up access, but too dumb to realize that they would be found out? Seems unlikely…

          @kingchristoph63 the password is to the iCloud account, and they've already searched that. But it can't execute an auto back up now.
