also, even though the key is unique to the phone, there are lots of files & data. i mean, if you know even one contact in the person's contact list, doesn't that compromise the encryption? not to mention scribbing for "mom" "mother" and the like. IMHO, while being ignorant of many relevant facts, the NSA could probably easily hack one of these phones. the only reason the cops can't hack these phones, is that they can't afford the computing power or expertise to do so. so what? they can always request help from the FBI's crypto unit. or, some other source. can't they? and, the cops have crypto ppl on staff. imho, it won't be long before the cops will get around this encryption.

this whole hulabalu about encrypted phones, its only the data on the phone that's encrypted. not the conversations. right?

does the encryption extend to call logs?
