    Apple should have just shut down all services to the country and let the constituents sort it out

    They simply don’t need an encryption backdoor. Proper investigative work will always provide more than enough evidence without violating encryption. Backdoors breaks encryption, just don’t have encryption if it has a backdoor. What did governments do before they could tap phone lines, and hack cell phones? They fucking worked. That’s what. They put their noses to the grind stone, and they worked. Proper feet on the pavement. What the idiot politicians once again are doing, is trying to make controlling the masses easier, by removing protections the people have against tyrannical governments, which is what ANY government is that wants an encryption backdoor, tyrannical.
