Be prepared for the next great transfer of wealth. Buy physical silver and storable food.

So it appears the FBI attempted to lie, and got caught — and this may have animated Apple’s reaction to their “request.” You see, (at least) the (iCloud) password on the iPhone from the California shooters was reset after the shooters died.
There has been a bit of digital ink spilled on the fact that the iPhone the shooters in California had was a “corporate” phone, owned by the county government — and a claim was made that the device wasn’t under remote management (which is common for employer-issued devices.) This was good for a chuckle on my part; who in this day and age issues employees a phone but doesn’t put it under remote management?
It turns out that claim may have been false; it looks like the device may have in fact been under said management.
Apparently when the FBI went to Apple they claimed they were not in possession of the device when the reset occurred — and a reset had occurred. Apple, however, was able to determine from location data that this was a lie and the phone was in the physical possession of the FBI at the time.
The post More On Apple .vs. The FBI appeared first on Silver For The People.
