Tim Cook chief executive wrote in a letter, which was published on Apple’s privacy page showing the company’s stance on helping the Federal Bureau of Investigation(FBI) on entering the iPhone of the now deceased terrorist Syed Rizwan Farook. “We don’t build a profile based on your email content or Web browsing habits to sell to advertisers. We don’t ‘monetize’ the information you store on your iPhone or in iCloud. And we don’t read your email or your messages to get information to market to you.”

On December second of 2015, 14 people were killed and 22 severely injured people in San Bernardino, California, by shooters and attempted bombers Farook and wife Tashfeen Malik. After the tragedy, the FBI called Apple to the Supreme court in the hopes of enforcing Apple to do what would be the most controversial move of the company.

“They have asked us to build a backdoor to the iPhone. Specifically, the FBI wants us to make a new version of the iPhone operating system, circumventing several important security features, and install it on an iPhone recovered during the investigation. In the wrong hands, this software — which does not exist today — would have the potential to unlock any iPhone in someone’s physical possession,” released Cook.

Since then Apple has stuck to its staunch stance on keeping the privacy of its users while the FBI has made moves to further the investigation in the hopes of finding any important information on the terrorists and any next moves they plan to employ.

Originally, the government needed to hire hackers for a one time deal to crack Farook’s iPhone password but not just any hackers could be used as some would not help and others could make the situation worse.

The more sketchy bunch of hackers have been the “black hats” who use their skills to steal people’s information and money. And like Goldilocks and the three bears, the “gray hats” have been the group of hackers who hack systems of companies and enemies if the United States for cash or any other exploits they might have.

In the attempt to hacking terrorist Farook’s iPhone, the team of hackers were successful in earning the $1.3 million. Sadly, no useful information has been found. But this allowed the FBI to make its own operating system based off of the hackers’ method so should a similar situation arise,The FBI could handle and even help other agencies by giving them technology like this..

Understandably, Apple has taken heat with the latest development that the FBI possesses a tool that can hack into the top most secure and latest iPhone 9. As a result, Apple has gone to challenging the FBI in a New York conference requesting that the FBI hacks into a more older version the iPhone 7.

Additionally, the FBI has denied the request it does not want Apple to find out the method the system employs so that the company can fix the issue with later installments in the next phones and iPads.
