      Good to know that even widely-available, over-the-counter basic phone encryption is still enough to confound the most technically advanced and well-funded law enforcement agency on the planet.

      Looks like actual terrorists have nothing to fear from the FBI. lol

      Every American with an iPhone should activate lockdown mode. It might not save you from all tactics of assault, but it’ll block the easy modes of entry.

      Reminder that law enforcement, particularly I’ve and fbi, have the ability to use biometrics such as fingerprint or facial recognition to unlock your phone without a warrant

      I recall John mcafee offering his services. Too bad he isn’t around anymore.

      >FBI agents were able to access the reporter’s work laptop by telling her to place her index finger on the MacBook Pro’s fingerprint reader, however.

      Is that legal?

      edit: It is apparently. I kept reading:

      >The Rozhavsky declaration said that during the home search, FBI agents “advised Natanson that the FBI could not compel her to provide her passcodes,” but “the warrant did give the FBI authority to use Natanson’s biometrics, such as facial recognition or fingerprints, to open her devices.

      If the fbi personnel left are anything like their incompetent half-pint leader, it’s no surprise.
