Apple executives decided to share more information about the iPhone used by the San Bernardino terrorist. As you know, the US Department of Justice (initiated by the FBI) accused the company of refusing to comply with a court order requiring the device to be unlocked in order to maintain good public relations.
Σύμφωνα με μια δημοσίευση από το Buzzfeed, εκfaceι της εταιρείας αποκάλυψαν ότι το FBI είχε προσπαθήσει ήδη να παραβιάσει το iPhone 5C που χρησιμοποιήθηκε από έναν από τους τρομοκράτες στις επιθέσεις San Bernardino. Το αποτέλεσμα αυτών το προσπαθειών ήταν να κλειδώσει εντελώς η συσκευή.
The company's executives say the FBI had changed the password to less than 24 hours since the police found the iPhone, although it is not yet clear why the federations changed the code.
But according to Apple, the company's technicians planned to recover the data from the iPhone using "four different ways," including one that involves connecting the phone to a known network Wi-Fi access.
But when they tried to use this method, Apple's technicians could not connect because the iPhone was already blocked after the Apple ID password had changed.
This of course happened after the intervention of the federal and that is why the FBI is asking the company for a backdoor.
So the only way to open the iPhone is to create a backdoor, which Apple claims to have never meant to be impossible. But according to the company, creating a backdoor could jeopardize the privacy of all iPhone users around the world.
“The government says this tool will only be used once, on one phone. But this is not true. Once created, the technique could be used over and over again, on any number of devices. In the physical world, this would be the equivalent of a key, capable of opening hundreds of millions of locks – from restaurants and banks to shops and homes. "No sane person would find this idea acceptable," Apple CEO Tim Cook said in a statement released earlier this week.
