GOOD MORNING AMERICA'S HOMEPAGE:

[ZekeBuf]

I'm definitely on Apple side. Don't be naive people, privacy as a fundamental layer of the structure of our society is bigger than a mass shooting is bigger than a lot of things.

[thewitness]

I believe that the government should be allowed to impose a camera in every room in every house of America.

[ophello]

Turns out there wasn't shit on that phone. What a joke.

[thewitness]

If someone else dies it would be on Apple's conscience.

[Humanaut.]

"It's urgent" - that was a good one.

[kambodiaboz]

Calm down FBI. Respect the people for god sake. There are other ways to prevent.

[Jayf]

If they wanted whats on that phone only! Cook would have given in?

[bytesinflight]

I guess what I don't understand is why the FBI can't work with the Cell Carrier to obtain packet traces off their Network. Whether messages were deleted off a Server or not the traces would be another option

[FazalFariz]

Why can't they hack into just that one phone and get the data, text messages, etc? Or the service provider to get the call recordings etc.

[navidnamini]

Honestly I'm torn. Yes I believe in the right of privacy, but at the same time, the phone may include data which may be essential to prevent another attack. Honestly, I can go either way.
