Snowden: FBI’s claim that it requires Apple’s help to unlock iPhone is ‘bullshit’

March 9, 2016 by Paul Spoerry 1 Comment

Speaking at Common Cause’s ‘Blueprint for Democracy’ conference today, Edward Snowden used his time to speak out about surveillance, personal liberties and of course, the San Bernadino iPhone.

“The FBI says Apple has the ‘exclusive technical means’ to unlock the phone,” Snowden said. “Respectfully, that’s bullshit.”

The article on TNW goes on to discuss the fact that several security researchers have even proposed a handful of other ways the FBI could break into Farook’s encrypted iPhone. They ultimately claim that 'It appears the backdoor the FBI wanted all along was actually into new legislation, not Farook’s iPhone.'
