A little bit factual, though... "There are a number of undocumented and hidden features and services in Apple iOS that can be used to bypass the backup encryption on iOS devices and remove large amounts of users’ personal data. Several of these features began as benign services but have evolved in recent years to become powerful tools for acquiring user data." https://threatpost.com/researcher-identifies-hidden-data-acquisition - -services-in-ios/ In practical terms, if Apple "can hack its own security" in response to a Court order, that would mean that Apple had the means to identify and repair the product defect(s) in question all along but failed to do so until so ordered. Which sounds a lot more like "plausible deniability" of a back door, than the absence of one. :o) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJWyG2bAAoJEDZ0Gg87KR0LolgQAIJM+/bv+cH1YhSjHZinK1sy ol8NW6weTJ64dvOPA9BQfVMsqd7fhR7OiLnV46FdtvctCoD0/rB4aNRO4sVz+Snj Eb7Q6bITVYXwAfqoyIezbqpPFH81+hIHRV4AHpREnYrlN7wRuNBrlBOBdAg3mY0e vT3lhtbyMBJCVjleOkHTG+PsqVRzwpy6+tIfMRq+Xu43SDen1NOwdSTLdzdNOq3r cGtFKkNhE7wtg1KWrmJC48WTKqhJTJYOXLLC/TPSN+9xSJllgbRvhh3mLY3IoK+9 WwecZR5OueAlHFGqXMBHxNJ3Z8B7kJ2yzV+uN7XbP5rLiqN22N/VilQy5nMMYbXe wLJYP8YMJPGn9axuukHr8cG78f2iCNiG3Zvzue9mdxjll1oiwH5K3lCaNSt1w2gL SHRQOt+DO1p8OcOf0cao40wxMjEorswx6H7X2YXYkDiNG8vGa4VHPF2x4xuiROpO QcFhrcQg0vu3KkRBkP47tPO3M5RAVIoIA/29WCJ8OQ21L+8PHHlajGSJ0he3vlRv rqeaX1cRMlw3UeYLuTvjL6SCp5dZr4xhNEgLMhtDdqgFwpuJlDwj07U0FCWJkF6L +6mLfT6+Uzkr3RyA+uQZ/1aTTPeervJmTN/fdt2eA36h2XuF06oVWaREgs/9bhw3 3UOwhYhhrBpjqnqxPFg0 =6lQj -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
I was under the mistaken impression that hacking the particular iPhone in discussion and building a new iOS were two separate, but related, issues. Didn't realize they were identical issues, mea culpa. On Sat, Feb 20, 2016 at 8:09 AM, Michael Best <themikebest@gmail.com> wrote:

Of course it does. 'Hacking' here means taking advantage of some 'bug' you are responsible for. It turns out then that the definitions of 'bug' 'backdoor' 'hacking' and 'working for the government' get nicely blurred. Awfully convenient for the likes of apple and the likes of you. 'plausible deniability' and all that shit.
Good soundbite, though.
Dude.

There's no such thing as 'secure' with any form, of electronic communication. There's "More secure". -- RR "Through counter-intelligence it should be possible to pinpoint potential trouble-makers ... And neutralize them, neutralize them, neutralize them"
