What's strange is that they're investigating two international terrorists who committed mass murder and all they're talking about is their fucking iPhone?

What if after all this drama and forcing everyone to install backdoors and disable encryption they find out that they used it only to play Clash of Clans and take pictures of food?

> take pictures of food

Maybe that's why the FBI is so wound up over this. They often confuse hummous and hamas.

Then it's mission accomplished, because the door's been wedged open.

You could write a good film script here;

how some secret 3 letter agency has gone rogue and has a long and complex plan to incite a couple of people to terrorism, making sure they conveniently die, leaving no witnessed.

This shadow group then invoke the hearts and minds of the people, through the fear of a series of terror acts to relinquish their privacy rights, happily accepting a legal precedent to remove encryption from the masses. Their end goal being total population control and surveillance on order to control the masses on behalf of a secret and powerful governing elite.

A bunch of FBI agents suspect this secret group have programmed these people to commit these terror acts, and since they are now dead they need to recover the data from the phone to prove this dastardly conspiracy.

Starring Matt Damon as the one rogue ex-agent who brings the whole almost perfect plan crashing down, and Liam Neeson as the FBI agent who is determined to bring this shadowy elite to justice.

Why the down votes out of interest? Bad plot?

Basically V for Vendetta but with more tech aesthetics.

It's his work phone, not personal. I can't believe there is anything on this phone worth getting access to that couldn't be obtained from another source.
