Apple denies helping NSA

2013-12-31 23:21:13.906419+01 by Dan Lyke 1 comments

Apple flatly denies helping the NSA put in backdoors. Which I think means one of three things:

  1. Apple is lying.
  2. The NSA is using other exploits, which means it's likely related to how iOS is being cracked in other contexts and the NSA is pretty damned cocky.
  3. The NSA is lying internally.

That last one... That last one is pretty damned plausible. Which makes the "defund them, shut them down, and replace the administrators with trustworthy people" even more the right answer.
