Were they americans? I thought they were European of some kind? And on that note of another type of tool that could get things unlocked and able to be viewed by the FBI, I guess it's security again though but could they somehow take copies of fingerprints setup on a device and then if the situation required it apple could provide that to the feds for use in apples presence to aquire the data.
Either way, if something gets out it's all our data availe to be world. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Michael Malver Sent: Friday, 19 February 2016 6:53 AM To: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search Two questions: 1. Why is this topic any more important for blind users than for any other? That supposition is non-sensical to me. 2. Since this topic is apparently on-topic, why couldn't Apple design some sort of tool whereby law enforcement could send a specific device to Apple, who could then take the device apart, and read/decrypt the data, much as one might now do through the removal of a hard rive from a laptop? Asked another way, could something be developed which isn't part of the operating system, but which could helplaw enforcement perform their task? For what it's worth, I think Tim is doing absolutely the right thing. A couple bad Americans shouldn't disrupt the majority of us who deserve incryption and who would not misuse it. I ask the above purely as hypotheticles. -----Original Message----- From: macvisionaries@googlegroups.com [mailto:macvisionaries@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of E.T.
