Ranter posted:French, Italians and SWEDES weren't wholly white for Ben Franklin? Wow. I know this has been gone over, but it's worth keeping in mind that Franklin - and the rest of the framers - considered themselves English for most of their lives, and for a long time it was an article of faith among the English that ( and I wish I were joking ) "the dagos begin at Calais".

Yeah I was going to say, even a lot of good people have dumb opinions about the Apple thing because nobody gets how encryption works, or the fact that this is much more about tech security practices and legal precedent than it is about privacy.

Alito, who is more right-wing than even Scalia (just without the bluster) was confirmed, you hack. Meanwhile, Senate Republicans are saying they won't even entertain the notion of Obama nominating anyone. Also, if you're wondering if our usual suspects are being complete hypocrites on the matter, of course they are!

The problem is that it actually is feasible for Apple to disable the security mechanisms the court is telling them to. Yes, the FBI will still have to brute force the PIN, but the search space is small enough that they should be able to accomplish that in a matter of days at most and more likely minutes - once Apple disables the security features that would prevent them from doing that. Since Apple controls the phone's firmware and it's possible to update the firmware on this particular model of the iPhone, it is entirely possible for Apple to comply with the court order. They're going to lose this battle in the end.

This is a derail in the making, but I don't think you could make any changes to the locked phones operating system or firmware because its, well, locked. And to brute force it, even if they could disable the timer/attempts security feature, are you imagining they have a robot arm that is pushing the buttons automatically at rapid speed?

There isn't a way to ensure the firmware can't be used to brute force other phones. If the state gave Apple the phone and compelled them to unlock it themselves and provide the state with an infodump then you might have a point.

Considering that Apple's already provided the FBI with the iCloud backup of the phone, along with all texts from it and call logs, and that it was a work phone, not the personal phones of the terrorists (which they actually shredded, along with their computer hard drives), I wonder what useful information the FBI actually wants to get off the phone? (There is none, they just want the precedent so they can force Apple to unlock any other iPhones they run across in the future, never mind that proving the feasibility of such opens the doors for other governments to demand the same drat thing)

The FBI wants to be able to brute force the phone. It currently has encrypted contents that are set to erase themselves after 10 unsuccessful attempts to gain entry. The courts want Apple to disable this feature.
