This whole article is hilarious. At no stage whatsoever has Apple actually made a statement that confirms they haven even requested the method used. All this laughable article could provide is "quotes" from an antivirus company. Apple don't really care how they did it, or even if they really did crack it, just as long as they didn't have to be seen doing it for the government.
- leecarraher 11y agoi'm sure they care how it was done so they can fix the security flaw in future ios devices. but they also have very little legal recourse to get them to do so (maybe dmca reverse engineering provisions, but thats never been very viable in court). Furthermore, it's fairly likely they've circumvented the issue via the secure enclave enhancements in newer ios devices. so why would they waste a bunch of money on litigation, to argue a position that if they win only results in exposing their security team of some minor incompetence that may not even be an issue in current generation devices.
