From the start there were requirements for mobile phones to permit

Do you remember, I think it was quite recently (less than 18 months I'd
guess) there was a massive hoo-ha in the mainstream media about Apple
refusing to give the FBI access to some guy's Iphone.

Apple said that they couldnt do that.

He was refusing to
hand over his password and there was "nothing the FBI could do about it
without Apple's assistance"

Nothing Apple could do to bypass the lack of a passcode either.

ROTFLMFAO! Talk about contrived! :-D

Easy to claim.
