but the best part is that they've been doing it consistently since snowden inspired them to. funny how he's being linked to them in a more direct way now.

so whose the FBI agent that told the county to reset or change the password? Or was that the company that owned the phone.
This is very cool to see. I'd be happier if Apple hired the guy.
Apple needs to get their platforms (iOS, iCloud, iMessage) as locked down as they want and distributed before the govt writes laws requiring everyone create a govt skeleton key (and other govts and bad guys will get it too) that works on all our safe's).
Supposedly the company that owned the phone did that under direct instructions by the FBI...this isn't about the data on the phone.

Oh good, Snowden - who'd rather open up sensitive data to not-friends and actual enemies long before sharing a fraction of what he's told them to Americans, while having the gall to claim he did everything to benefit America.
Apple is becoming just as treasonous in supporting the terrorists.
George W Bush really was right... makes one wonder how many other issues he was right on that I (and others) was wrong about...

Really, let's end the hyperbole BS about skeleton key **** since many of those exist everywhere else and people are not crowing on about any of those...
Also, read this for some perspective:

More about our "hero" Snowden:

Yet another reason to vote for Clinton? Or many, having read the whole of the article? I think so. Even the last paragraph, which seems strange.

If we ever find out what was on Hillary's home server and what nations (China? Iran?) hacked into it, we may learn that she caused more damage than Snowden.
