Re: They'll keep trying
Yes, they will keep trying.
From the article: With Apple taking a fierce public stance on the issue, with public opinion split, with Washington criticizing the FBI's approach, and with Congress indicating that it is prepared to get stuck into the issue, the FBI has clearly decided the best thing to do right now is get out the spotlight and work on a different strategy.
No, it hasn't IMHO. The FBI knows full well that the public attention span is short, so they may even try again in a few months, or pop this one up when yet another atrocity has been committed. In that context I'm not quite sure what qualifies, though, is yet another shopping mall shooting sufficient, or do the perpetrators have to be foreigners too? I can never quite follow that.
So yes, I agree - they will try again unless someone finally tells them they are not WRITING the law, only enforcing it. Easy one to forget with so many egos involved, I know..
