> I get all that. What I don't get is the lack of interest in data that terrorists can store safely on their phone, and waltz pass Police etc as they are taken into custody.
If the San Bernardino shooter was so confident of his cellphone security, why did he destroy his personal device (and his laptop)?
I conclude he did NOT trust the security; nevertheless, he did NOT destroy this iPhone 5c — suggesting (as the Police Chief of San Bernardino County commented) that it has no useful info on it.
> It just seems that the privacy of unimportant innocents is more important than terrorists.
If you mean that the certain safeguarding of the private information of many millions of innocents is more important than the potential obscuring of a minuscule amount of criminal activity — then I agree.
