I have always been under the assumption that nothing that I text,
email, or look at on the internet is private, that someone can always go back
and check it out, someone locally or remotely.
I have come to the realization that our information is out there, just
hanging in midair being ready to be plucked when they want it, and I am not
even sure I know who they are. In the
news lately is that the federal government is asking Apple to unlock a phone
that belonged to a terrorist, I always just assumed that the government had the
ability to do this. I wonder if they are
asking Apple out of a ruse that they are pulling over our eyes, claiming that
they cannot get into someone’s phone. In a situation like this, I can honestly say
that I believe that Apple has an obligation to help the government to unlock
this phone, and here is why I think that, first of all the phone is owned by
the shooters employer San Bernardino County and they have given permission and
secondly I still think that all our information is just hanging out for the
picking but most importantly I think that if they could foil some terrorist
plot then it is worth it.
