After reading a post by a Google engineer on this issue, I'm going to err on the side of believing that Google, Apple, and others aren't actually actively inserting back doors into their code.

- michaelt 13y agoBy all accounts, these secret court orders often come with gagging clauses - which would likely extend to even gagging one employee from telling another. For all I know the guy next to me could be under a secret court order forcing him to insert backdoors. Of course, as there's no way to disprove this hypothesis, and there's no proof of it, you can still err any way you like :)
- brisance 13y agoSo why would Apple voluntarily issue an update to fix the problem if they were gagged under a secret court order?
