Re: [iPad] FBI's secret method of unlocking iPhone may never reach Apple

 

Apple runs a business where the sole reason is to make money, thats fine. They don't wish to compromise their security, thats also fine. Security is one of many reasons why Apple's products are desirable. 

The FBI also runs a business, national security. It has means to covertly spy on private information so that it can exercise its role in helping national security. Is it fair to expect them to disclose information so that a means of access gets blocked, thereby cutting into their business at hand? Is it their role to help Apple increase their security on their devices? Should the FBI also disclose to other enterprises what they are doing, so that those enterprises can block the FBI? May as well remove the FBI, if they are decreed to hand over any information they have so that it can be used to block them.

No, it doesn't.

The FBI *demanded*, via court order, that Apple create software that did not exits.

Apple is *asking* that the FBI reveal the nature of a flaw/vulnerability *that they already know about*.
