Do you even understand what this lawsuit is about? Do you understand what the ramifications are if they win? If they lose?
I want you to explain exactly what you mean by your comment. How are they going to win in such a way that we lose?
Yes, I do. Don't assume. If they win or lose is irrelevant. If they win, it will not be used for some glorious precedent forever pushing against the governments asking to compromise all software solutions, it will be just a saved implementation time for apple and a pr boost for them among people who don't know better. If they lose, it will be yet another trust and security issue with a closed proprietary unauditable product noone security minded should be using anyway, by a shit company with ties to fascist, willingly cooperating with PRISM and who knows what other programs, in a rogue state which is a part of Five Eyes.
