AmericanFett said:Thank you Tim!! This is ridiculous the FBI/DoJ is using a mass-murder terror attack as a publicity stunt to force something they have yet to get through legislation rather than just quietly requesting that info out like they should have done day one, no mention to the press needed. They are just using this as an opportunity to get press. It's disgusting and I will probably never touch another Apple product as a result. What they're doing makes me sick.
However, in response to your publicity stunt comment, which the FBI/DoJ also claimed, you couldn't be more wrong. Apple wanted this case sealed so it wouldn't go public. It is the FBI that refused and made this public. Think about that for a minute -
