Originally posted by DaveB View PostIt wasn't inane, it was the logical extension of the argument. If you give a government the power to do something under once set of circumstances it gives them the leverage they need to claim they have to do it under another, and there is no guarantee they will tell you about it until after the fact. Or they will, and no-one will kick up a fuss because they didn't pay attention or there was a bigger story that day.The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't existComment

As much as I sympathize with the authorities about encryption, they don't have any right to expect all citizens to willing give up their own privacy just so that it makes their job easier. I hate criminals (whether terrorists, pedophiles etc) as much as the next person but banning or weakening encryption won't stop their behaviour and I don't think society as a whole should be prepared to sacrifice that freedom for the small benefit it might give in some specific cases.Comment

Originally posted by northernladuk View PostI must admit Im also divided on this one as well but one thing I'm sure of is that Apple should not get the information on how to fix the flaws. They dug their heels in wrongly or rightly so no way should the solution to fix it be handed over. They can't have their cake and eat it.Originally posted by FatLazyContractor View Post+100Comment
