Apple should unblock terrorist’s phone

To me, it’s obvious whose side I should be on in the Apple v FBI duel (‘Question of the Fortnight’, Issue 470). I support the FBI 100 per cent. Of course, it doesn’t matter one jot what a cranky 67-year-old from Shropshire thinks, although I’d be happy to give Apple a piece of my mind any day. Does anyone know Tim Cook’s phone number?

Apple is exaggerating the threat posed by the FBI. It’s not asking to access the iPhone belonging to every person on the planet, just one phone that belonged to one person. And that person just happens to be a murderer who killed 14 people.

Frankly, I struggle to see what the problem is. The FBI is simply asking Apple to unlock a phone. Apple are behaving irresponsibly, and appear not to care about the feelings of the relatives of the dead
