Good for Apple. There have been way too many cases of the government secretly abusing surveillance laws already. There are tradeoffs with privacy and security. But sometimes that has to tilt towards privacy. In an odd way it reminds me of the 2a arguement about needing guns to fight government tyranny. Imagine if the government orderyed a gun manufacturer to create a device that could disable any gun made remotely. The government claims they would only use it on bad guys guns. and promised no bad guys would ever figure out how to build one themselves. No one would go for that.
Creating a hack to the iphone is the same attempt, but seeks to disable our privacy rights rather than our guns. Except that once built, it is almost guaranteed that criminal hackers will figure it out and use it against everybody.

I suppose the question is can a private company such as Apple be forced to follow rules that the government wants them to?

Sgt Aaron Kennedy, MS - I totally agree that Apple should fight this. The last time this law was updated was 1949. I think it is time for a change. Hmmm. imagine that. I never thought I would see the day that I was actually defending Apple! ;)
