Question
In the recent past, nothing has captured the attention of the world more than the tussle between the technology company “Apple” and the US law enforcement agency “FBI”.
The legal battle focused on two aspects: the perceived privacy and the deemed security for the citizens. Upon the request of FBI, a court order was issued to Apple in February 2016 to assist in circumventing the security measures of a device used by a terrorist.
Without bypassing the security controls, FBI was not able to access the contents of the device. Apple’s refusal to comply triggered a fierce debate about the security and privacy. Some people argued that by not complying with the court order, Apple broke the law. However, in other people’s opinion, Apple had the right of appeal against the court order, and the company could only be enforced to follow the court order if all possible avenues of appeal have been exhausted. If both parties stood their ground and engaged in the lengthy court proceedings, then the final decision would be made by the Supreme Court that would be binding on both parties.
Research this case and find out what where the real outcomes. Please write three to four paragraphs.
Explanation / Answer
The terrorist,syed farook is killed so many peoples in the san bernardino attack .This case was investigated by theU.S.FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION(F.B.I.).While investigating by the FBI , it found an iphone which was used by the terrorist.so FBI TEAM TRIED TO UNLOCK TTHE PHONE upto 10 attempts by this they want to capture the data of the terrorist,but the phone is not unlocked so at that time FBI asked to apple help to unclock the phne and idenfies the information about the terrorist.
At that time, the apple didnt accept the FBI proposal .So,APPLE rejects the proposal ,So that FBI has no chnace to unlock the apple iphone,so that FBI goes through the Federal court,so at that time federal court requestd to apple to provide the detials about the phne security encryption data,but the apple didnt accpet that proposals beacause the apple company main security is encrytion is key to protectng user data from hackers.
So at last the govt decided to bring the third party that was able to unlock the iphone.by this third party the FBI recieves the information which is encrypted on the iphone of the terrorist ,syed farook .
As a result of the government dismissal,neither of these occured,so that FBI and apple dropped the case .
The FBI got thier desire result by gettng acces to the farook's iphone.
So the apple company 's opinion is not correct ,apple company has to support FBI by proving the encryption data to identifuy terrorists and decrease the terrorism in the world,by finding the terrorists peoples in the world.
