And Apple were made a fool of when a third party decrypted the phone

Or claimed to.


I thought the FBI admitted in court that this was the case, or certainly
the case against Apple fell, because the FBI initially claimed they

To be honest I was surprised the FBI couldn't as I thought the code was
4 alphanumerics, which is only 500,000 combinations. BICBW
