FBI's iPhone Unlocking Attempt Could Help Apple Nix NY Case
by Don Reisinger
Apple has asked for a delay to see how the FBI does at unlocking the iPhone [used by an accused terrorist].
While the FBI tries to unlock an iPhone owned by [alleged] San Bernardino attacker Syed Farook, Apple is trying to get out of a similar case in New York.
Apple issued a letter on Thursday addressed to District Court Judge Margo Brodie asking to delay a case based in New York related to a drug dealer until the FBI can determine if it's capable of unlocking Farook's iPhone 5c, according to Reuters, which obtained a copy of the letter.
