Fourth Amendment issues remain. Both sides need to argue more forthrightly.

The FBI and Apple reached a cease-fire last week, but it can't last, because it leaves unresolved the future of reasonable searches under the Fourth Amendment. It would be a public service if both sides started making their arguments forthrightly.
The FBI thought it needed Apple's help to gain access to the iPhone used by San Bernardino terrorist Syed Rizwan Farook. Apple refused, claiming that doing so would require giving the government "backdoor" access to all iPhones.
