The lawsuit against Apple has been dropped.


"Technology experts reveal that an Israeli company could dramatically
circumvent the legal conflict between the FBI and Apple by hacking the

Cellebrite, a multinational cellular forensic company headquartered in
Petah Tikva, has a sole-source contract with the FBI and provides the

(UFED), which can break into locked iPhones and Android devices."
