After successfully entered into an iPhone 5C is the FBI with the locking a phone linked to a murder case in Arkansas. And many demands on Apple remains.
the battle between Apple and the FBI about encryption may be over regarding the celebration of San Bernardino case, but the war is still going on. After having successfully entered the iPhone 5C, Apple refused to develop a särskils operating system, will now be the federal police help to unlock more devices connected to criminal cases.
More specifically, the FBI has agreed to help unlock an iPhone and an iPad that is evidence in a murder case in the state of Arkansas. This reports The New York Times. The details of both the units and the FBI’s contribution to the investigation are unknown. Because it is not known which method the FBI used to unlock the acclaimed iPhone 5C know we are not on the same method used here.
Arkansas is also hardly the last place where phones criminal investigations can be unlocked. The organization American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has published on its website an interactive map of the places in the US where authorities by reference to the law All writs Act called Apple or Google to unlock a mobile device. In total, it is about at least 76 cases in 22 different states. In addition, Apple also identified 12 additional cases submitted to the court.
So there are still many demands on Apple to assist the authorities to crack their own encryption. Eliza Sweren-Becker’s attorney at the ACLU, and writes on the organization’s website:
– the FBI wants you to believe that they just will use all writs Act in extraordinary cases, to force technology companies to help to unlock the phones. It turns out that these requirements have actually become quite common.
