Discussion on the Apple iPhone case where the FBI could not access the data in a locked phone after what was believe to be a terrorist attack on US soil. Discussion on the personal rights of the holder as well as the upholding the rights of the maker to keep private information private. A long discussion that touches on Constitutional Rights, the right of privacy while balancing law enforcement interest to have access to phone and data that may or may not confirm terrorist activity.

An intriguing discussion on how some of the world's best cybersecurity experts and cryptographers at the FBI had troubling breaching the locked iPhone--and how external forces from outside the agency helped make it happen.

From the trenches of cyber-security, Bruce Schneier lays out the facts, and Atty. David O'Brien lays out of the law. A fascinating discussion on pushing the limits to protect our nation, while balancing interests of privacy.
