They are asking for a patched OS with a deliberate security flaw to be loaded onto this phone.

Problem 1: Once Apple does this, they can do this with any phone.
Problem 2: If they do this, any government can ask for this. Imagine what China will do with this.

FBI is asking for way more than what you propose here.
yes...they want their brute force software to work on the fast port. duh.

what specifically is the security flaw you are talking about? the FBI director said they want to disable the data-erase feature, on this one phone. the govt has a compelling public safety interest in accessing this one phone. how does this effect every phone.

so what are you talking about? if the govt has a warrant or a judge that agrees the phone data should be searched, how is this a threat to the publics privacy? its not a secret operation to backdoor anything to the public at large.
