But the FBI argues that only wants to access the iPhone of the terrorist of San Bernardino califonia farook through a system that only Apple know and that will destroy subsequent to the investigation.
Now the response of the Apple because it resists to collaborate in research that is taking the government, in a report to its users, the chairman of Apple, says that they do not want to create a door, alterativo system to access a iPhone apart from entering the password.
The rear placed are crucial in security the computer or hackers can Piras and make real fortunes if the discovered and the buyers who try to decrypt and spy on any target for damage to users including the government.
Most of the experts say that it is possible to access the iPhone of Farook without damaging the data it contains, Apple has not denied that this is possible.
