@marcan42 Devil's advocate for a sec here: Wouldn't pushing a new FW update that enabled some backdoor qualify as Apple helping?
@jchillerup Exactly, that is the threat model they're trying to avoid discussing (and what the FBI is asking them to do).

@jchillerup It *is* possible to design a system secure against that (think: firmware updates require passcode, in a secure way). -
@marcan42 Not without sacrificing their own power to push automatically installed firmware updates, which IMO is unlikely to ever happen. - Show replies
