I have a pretty certain suspicion that this whole debate is fake. Here is why:
They already have backdoors in the hardware! The googles and apples and so on, the big companies already willingly work with them! Etc.
Apple is happy to pretend they are on the consumers side, fighting the demands, in order to roll back the damage that the Snowden revelations have done to the collaborators. In reality it is the same as before: business as usual. What does it matter even if the device is truly encrypted? They've got all your info while you were using it anyway. This way the people they don't want to have it can't get it, but they still have it.
This debate about adding backdoors, this pretending to care that backdoors are added, is nothing more than an attempt to fool you and I that they don't already have them!
This isn't to say that if they win these fake debates they won't also use such an opportunity to make illegal things like TOR and Freenet as they have made attempts to circumvent copyright protection illegal. This will be so that if secure hardware does arise, they won't have to worry much about it since the software will be illegal and already repressed and thus retarded since made illegal.
