Apple says government lost access to shooter’s iPhone backup by changing passcode. Looks like the FBI should hire someone who knows what they’re doing with Apple products.
UPDATE: We’re not sure whether to call this an update, correction or BS but here’s the latest:
The auto reset was executed by a county information technology employee, according to a federal official. Federal investigators only found out about the reset after it had occurred and that the county employee acted on his own, not on the orders of federal authorities, the source said.
Apple executives say the iPhone was in the possession of the government when iCloud password was reset. A federal official familiar with the investigation confirmed that federal investigators were indeed in possession of the phone when the reset occurred.
All we can say is yeah right, if you say so.
