As Bernie and Obama and Hillary would say, "Apple should pay their fair share".

I'll take a disappointing 50B quarter revenue any day.

Yeah, I want it on Apple TV also. Hulu and Netflix don't give me free shipping from Amazon.

Well whatever the FBI is doing ain't helping their case for backdoors and weaker encryption, so I am giving them the benefit of a doubt. It seems like what they are doing is bragging that they unlocked Farook's phone like Apple's security sucks or something. I am ok with whatever as long as they never ask for backdoors to encryption again, like ever.

Except this isn't the FBI bragging about it but rather an Arkansas prosecuting attorney.

The FBI is likely playing silly mind games, and themedia just seems to be lapping it up with zero serious questioning or skepticism. 

Since this came from an Arkansas prosecuting attorney and not the FBI, why do you think the FBI is behind this? You mean the FBI has never before helped other law enforcement agencies break into smart phones and other electronic gear?

I suspect you're hearing about this now because the press is publicizing it now after the recent Apple/FBI news to help make money for the news agencies. But I guess that doesn't play into your conspiracy theories.
