I don't misunderstand at all. I just have a different opinion than you do. However, a lot of misinformation is being spread. The FBI isn't asking for Apple to create a backdoor. End of story. They're compelling Apple to open a backdoor that Apple already created. Apple made an insecure system. They can, and I think should fix it, but in this phone at least the back door is there. So, wait to use a slippery slope argument when it actually becomes applicable. You're so trigger happy to jump on the privacy, precedent setting bandwagon you didn't stop to think what this case actually is. Basically, as long as you make insecure systems, the government can (by the fourth amendment no less) demand you let them in if they have probable cause and a warrant. If you make something impossible to get into, and the government starts demanding you stop making devices like that, then we have a problem. But this particular case doesn't get us any closer to that outcome. Not even symbolically. I think you and everyone else overreacting to this case grasps gravity that isn't there. You're tilting at windmills.
