FYI: There's a cop tool called GrayKey that force unlocks iPhones. Let's hope it doesn't fall into the wrong hands!

Spy vs Spy vs Spy ad infinitum

It's almost a game it seems but it's not. It's real and it can have real bad implications. I can understand that the cops would want one. But should they actually be allowed to have one? Seems that the IT industry just keeps chasing it's tail here with exploits, patches, etc. And then with this, due process falls by the wayside.

The old saying "nothing to hide, nothing to fear" is not (maybe it never was) true. In this case, there's a lot to fear even if you haven't done anything wrong. Once the phone has been broken, anything can be planted on it.
