Re: FBI may have found way to unlock San Bernardino attacker's iPhone

I just had something interesting happen.
I got a notice on my computer that my iTune software needed to be updated.
So I downloaded the software and updated the computer.
About fifteen minutes later the software on the computer opens up
and asks me if I want to have iTunes encrypt my backup.
Then it proceeded to finish with the upgrade to the computer. Very strange.
I don't ever remember being asked this question after a software upgrade. :headscratch

Re: FBI may have found way to unlock San Bernardino attacker's iPhone

Updated 3 minutes ago. I don't see anything new, but I just saw this.
The FBI has finally accessed an iPhone belonging to one of the San Bernardino shooters last month but the device hasn't yielded
a "smoking gun," according to law enforcement sources who said authorities are continuing to follow leads generated by the device.

The iPhone 5c used by Syed Farook did not contain any identities of suspected co-conspirators or overseas contacts that
investigators believe may be related to the attacks, law enforcement sources told ABC News.

The method used to access the device and the identity of the third party who helped are unknown. FBI Director James Comey
said earlier this month the tool purchased from a private party and used to access Farook's iPhone only works on a "narrow slice"
of phones, such as the iPhone 5c running iOS 9.

Re: FBI may have found way to unlock San Bernardino attacker's iPhone

Just saw that "an outside party" will unlock the phone, so Apple is off the hook.

I guess it must not have been encrypted as well as some people thought.
