Also, McAffee says he can decrypt the data for the FBI for free in three weeks, why not take him up on it?

A company can always re-evaluate their role in a case such as this. This issue effects the safety of its employees in addition to privacy concerns by the American people and marketability. Apple is a private company, not a political or law enforcement organization and is therefore not held to the standards inherent in protecting Americans.

The ole saying : Believe nothing one read's and only half of what they see ! Misinformation. Just remember this ! How many more people will have to die ?
I understand rights and privacy is a concern . Yes I get it ! One cannot tell me that their are not other ways to get around this problem . I agree the Feds Should not be able to have a company make a key to unlock any device. Technology is growing by leaps and bounds. Funny how this would not have come up as a question 30 years ago.
Do we send our special operations teams out on a mission without intel ? I don't think so !
Whom do we protect here ? Our children or Terrorist ? And I know someone is going to say John, Be realistic ! There has to be a solution to the problem without trampling on personal rights and freedom's !
