RT @MarcusWohlsen: If Apple wants to make the government seem relatable and sympathetic, blaming it for not understanding iCloud is definitely the way to go

RT @dannyyadron: Apple confirms what we had in our story Tuesday: This has nothing to do with 5c vs. 6 or 6s. This would work with any phone.

RT @dannyyadron: For all the talk about China, Apple says no other country in the world has asked them to do what DOJ seeks.

RT @dannyyadron: I've been writing about the feud between Apple & FBI since 2014. The latest filling from DOJ is unquestionably the low point in this fight.

RT @MikeIsaac: basically an insane battle between Apple and DoJ playing out in public and it is only escalating at 6pm on a friday wooooooo

@mathewi 8 years ago

Not that anyone asked me, but I think Apple probably should comply with the DoJ's request -- but I am still glad it is putting up a fight

RT @eastdakota: Interesting Third Amendment argument in FBI v. Apple case: forcing company to write faulty code is modern equivalent of quartering soldiers.

RT @LaurenSivan: While you're at it, FBI, can you also force #Apple to suspend auto-correct when typing the F word? No one ever means "ducking." #AppleVsFBI

RT @fmanjoo: By the way according to Apple it is not true that an iOS rewrite of the sort the FBI is asking for here wouldn't work on newer iPhones.

Wondering If you need to break into an iPhone, what is happening with the data being accumulated by NSA before it hits the phone?

RT @JasonT: FBI to Apple: “You built a house for a bad guy, so create a master key to let us open ALL houses you built. Also, bad guys might borrow it."

@superglaze 8 years ago

RT @mdowd: If the FBI want to get into an iPhone w/o users permission, they should ask someone who's done it before, like U2

RT @SophieintVeld: Admittedly, our own European governments suffer from the same excessive curiosity as the NSA, but at least in EU we can challenge it

RT @maxschrems: #SafeHarbor - @SophieintVeld: All you have say, I see no limitation! What does the Ombudsman mean? Can it regulate the NSA?

@mathewi 8 years ago

RT @bartongellman: To be clear, @ashk4n didn't cause any @Snowden docs to leak. He made our NSA stories better & fairer--and the workspace far more secure.

RT @jdgalarneau: @mathewi Wonder if Obama's @fitbit is protected by NSA IoT firewall. If I were foreign Intel service, would try to hack that ASAP.

The peril of three-letter agencies: Illumio's new cyberpolicy chief comes from NSC, not NSA, as my first headline stated.

RT @kragen: A weird thing about this Clinton call for a "Manhattan Project" to end security on the internet: NSA's budget is an M.P. per 30 months.

Wondering how many of Hilary's emails were stolen from the NSA by Snowden after it stole then from the Russians who stolen them from Hilary

RT @attackerman: Wait, US government officials don't like foreign surveillance agencies stealing their sensitive data en masse?

@BenedictEvans 8 years ago

(Saw this with Snowden NSA disclosure too: some people said 'terrible!', many others said 'isn't that what we pay them for?')

@BenedictEvans 8 years ago

At this stage it looks like the fastest way to apply modern tech to US government data is for the NSA to steal it back from the Chinese
