Have these people even READ Riley v. California[1]? To quote from the majority opinion:
"modern cell phones, [...] are now such a pervasive and insistent part of daily life that the proverbial visitor from Mars might conclude they were an important feature of human anatomy. [...] Cell phones, however, place vast quantities of personal information literally in the hands of individuals.
The argument with Apple is not the same question as the (now settled) situation where there is no warrant, but clearly cell phones need to be treated specially.
