Should Apple PROVIDE a tool/software to the government to crack the phone? Absolutely not.
Should Apple extract the information and provide just that to the government? Absolutely.
My reasoning? The b**** surrendered all privacy rights when she and her idiot husband opened fire on innocent people. Even if she was still breathing I would say the same. Also, since she is dead privacy is no longer a concern.
Again, Apple should not give the government a reusable tool or program, but they should try to extract and give the info to the authorities.
This issue with providing a tool or extracting the data, is that, Apple do not have a tool to do this themselves, if created, means others can get there hands on it AND will get there hands on it.
So either way its a lose/lose.
I have to stand by Apple otherwise, the courts will have a leg to stand on in making backdoors to everything and give the key to the Gov - then people will steal from the Gov (either employees or third party)
