Reuters:
A federal judge in Brooklyn, New York, on Monday rejected a U.S. Justice Department request to order Apple Inc (AAPL.O) to help law enforcement access data on a locked iPhone, in a ruling that bolsters the company’s arguments in a growing privacy fight with the government.
U.S. Magistrate Judge James Orenstein in Brooklyn ruled that he did not have the legal authority to order Apple to disable the security of an iPhone seized during a drug investigation.
This isn’t the Apple vs FBI case that has garnered so much attention but it is interesting, if not precedent setting, that the judge in this particular case ruled against the government and its use of the All Writs Act, the same law the FBI is trying to use against Apple.
Check out the ABC interview with Tim Cook on iTunes. Its the entire interview and Cook provides more insight into how opening the iPhone for the FBI could play out in other (non-terrorist) cases, where judges would be the ones deciding which cases merit unlocking the iPhone, rather than the law. Judge Orenstein is a man of principal and integrity, but not all judges are.
Didn’t know it was on iTunes; thanks.
