Apple vs The F.B.I

This article reviews the consequences of how it is important for all Americans to have our private information stored on our iPhone and the debate over privacy and online encryption. Basically with the Federal government wants apple to install a back door so they can access our private information when they want without a search warrant. Apple CEO Tim Cook sent out a published open letter to customer s announcing Apple's decision to engage in the battle for all Americans. One other thing that he stressed he that by building a backdoor it would be too dangerous to create. I am very glad that Apple has put up a fight for us. It's like two goliath's fighting against each other and we are like David form the bible. What I don't understand is that with all the technology the F.B.I still can't open the iPhone of the shooters. My son –in- law who I won't say his name, but he was able to crack my code on my iPhone about a year ago with easy. Going back to this issue I feel that the F.B.I just wants to find out what we are doing and to spy on us. I don't think it has to do with counterterrorism.  The F.B.I instead wants to break those security features and that's a dangerous precedent that the government is trying to set upon us the American consumers. In conclusion of my analysis, I feel delight what Tim said "The government is asking Apple to hack our own users and undermine decades of security advancements that prot3ec our customers including tens of millions of American citizens from sophisticated hacker and cybercriminals ". One last thing that I just want to add is this is not just about the one phone, it's about every phone.
