"Wray’s speech undoubtedly spurred frustration in Silicon Valley" It's an absolutely ridiculous notion that everyone in the Valley is pro-privacy. It's the exact opposite. Many of the security higher-ups in the Valley are complicit and working very closely with law enforcement to figure out a solution. These companies are trying to figure out how to balance risk; the risk of providing a secret way to open up someone's phone to the government while keeping it hidden from everyone and the PR fallout of knowingly providing backdoors to supposedly secure personal electronic devices. It's got nothing to do with some high-and-mighty goal that every person is entitled to privacy(of course the constitution would disagree but that's irrelevant). This is a hilarious facade. If they need access to the phone data, they will get it. On top of all that, the San Bernardino case illustrated that there is a market for private security companies to circumvent most security protections anyway.
