&gt; Can we not drag this down to the media scare tactic that is child pornography?<p>You mean can we not use the crime Apple has essentially made impossible to secure a conviction on? No, I&#x27;m sorry. Kids being raped matters.<p>&gt; For every sicko who&#x27;s trading child porn there&#x27;s dozens, if not hundreds, more who&#x27;re trying to escape an abusive partner, leaving gangs, getting away from sexual slavery, or whistleblowing on government or companies breaching the law.<p>None of which is remotely related to phones being unbreakable <i>by law enforcement</i>.<p>&gt; If Apple create this ability its use will extend past the immediate issue and affect people who genuinely need this security<p>A fallacious slippery slope. If you let the Police search my house, they will search everyone&#x27;s house without a warrant and therefore it&#x27;s bad to have any searching ever.
