Let's find out.
As an iPhone user, I presume I have standing and could argue some form of damages. Now, is there a lawyer out there interested in discussing whether there is really any merit to bringing a suit forward?
Would / could this be a class action, or in this case, is it better to seek an individual out come?
Hypothetically speaking, of course, until there are proven grounds to stand on.

Ianal, but isn't the US government (via the FBI's court proceedings) publicly stating they have access to / have used a vulnerability actionable in some way? If this were done in private that would be one thing, but they've now gone on the record as saying a usable vulnerability exists.
