    Did Tim not go there personally? Did he not bend the knee? Would you consider the small trophy an insufficient bribe for the amount of financial relief Apple got from the most successful conman grifter in history? It’s logical to assume there is a gap in what we saw, and what actually happened.

      None of that is in the least relevant to the conversation at hand. I literally don’t understand what you’re going on about at this point, I’ve already said that yes they capitualated, but they have a track record of not capitulating when it comes to encryption and they’re under the same societial stipulations all encryption providers are, and modern encryption is pretty much exclusively provided by algorithms designed and detailed by the US NSA (vetted by competing governments). None of Apples business dealings have anything to do with the simple fact that their implementation is robust as and leaves you to as much risk as any operating system and hardware you did not design or fully vet yourself, which I can actually assure you based on the sheer volume of silicon and lines of code involved, you did not do.

        Please, in your words, state what the conversation at hand is.

        Edit : the silence is deafening.
