They've also significantly decreased the security of their devices with face ID and fingerprint ID, both of which can be faked with relative ease, the easiest way being simply manhandling a persons hand or face into position be LEO (or other nefarious actor). https://www.macrumors.com/2018/12/16/3d-printed-head-android-face-id/ https://www.macrumors.com/2017/11/27/face-id-iphone-x-fooled-by-mask/ > > :o) > > > > > > > -- GPG fingerprint: 17FD 615A D20D AFE8 B3E4 C9D2 E324 20BE D47A 78C7 signature.asc Description: PGP signature

I would describe that episode as a publicity stunt cooked up by the FBI and DoD contractor Apple. If I recall correctly, Apple claimed it "could not" unlock the device in question; but after public attention started to die down, a 3rd party forensics shop did unlock it. Meanwhile, back in the network security world, Declan Mccullagh reported: https://www.cnet.com/news/apple-deluged-by-police-demands-to-decrypt-iphones/ "ATF says no law enforcement agency could unlock a defendant's iPhone, but Apple can 'bypass the security software' if it chooses.

It's funny how the most 'successful' 'heroes' of the 'free market', companies like apple, microsoft, google, facebook and the like do not provide any value at all and have never ever produced a single 'innovation'. microsoft's 'market cap' is 70 millions? THat's 70 of DESTROYED value. I guess all those companies follow the coca-cola model. Build an empire selling sugary water. > > :)
