00:05:54 ◼   ► courts a bit of leeway to you know well so they don't shrug their shoulders and [TS]

00:06:01 ◼   ► its really really hard to see how that applies here especially when so many [TS]

00:08:39 ◼   ► statutory construction that requires giving meaning to all statutory words [TS]

00:09:02 ◼   ► this there's another one that says something like it it's basically to the [TS]

00:09:05 ◼   ► effect of it you know if the government's permission is true position [TS]

00:09:08 ◼   ► is accurate then there's nothing stopping the government from commanding [TS]

00:09:13 ◼   ► someone to commit murder right way we can command you to do whatever we need [TS]

00:09:28 ◼   ► proceedings to obtain powers for itself against apple that public debate in [TS]

00:09:34 ◼   ► Congress would never permit it is judge orenstein wrote quote clear that the [TS]

00:09:40 ◼   ► government has made the considered decision that it is better off securing [TS]

00:09:44 ◼   ► such crypto legislative authority from the courts in proceedings that had [TS]

00:09:50 ◼   ► always been at the time and filed the instant application shielded from public [TS]

00:09:53 ◼   ► scrutiny rather than taking the chance that open legislative debate might [TS]

00:09:58 ◼   ► produce a result less to its liking and quote back to Greenwald because [TS]

00:10:02 ◼   ► government wants the courts rather than Congress to grant this power the quote [TS]

00:10:07 ◼   ► government's interpretation of the breath and authority of the all writs [TS]

00:10:11 ◼   ► Act confers on courts of limited jurisdiction raises serious doubts about [TS]

00:10:41 ◼   ► devastating in my opinion I mean it seems to me not just what I think but [TS]

00:10:45 ◼   ► you know Greenwald's pretty smart on issues like this it just seems like [TS]

00:10:50 ◼   ► everybody you know follows the stuff really sees this as a slam-dunk case and [TS]

00:10:55 ◼   ► apples favor [TS]

00:10:56 ◼   ► yeah well this ruling is this right right right apples favor definitely I [TS]

00:13:00 ◼   ► and decided way you know I i find this argument about I mean it's an [TS]

00:13:05 ◼   ► interesting argument about the the idea that where this debate should take place [TS]

00:13:09 ◼   ► and I'm just here to put it into into simple terms for stupid people like me I [TS]

00:13:16 ◼   ► had not seen the most recent Mission Impossible movie it and I just started [TS]

00:13:21 ◼   ► watching it this afternoon and then this this came out which is kind of funny [TS]

00:14:27 ◼   ► rotation inspector I find that rogue nation was by far the better movie [TS]

00:14:31 ◼   ► that's my understanding have not seen evidence Inspectorate that is a subject [TS]

00:14:36 ◼   ► first and different episode of the show yeah it wasn't possible [TS]

00:14:39 ◼   ► I think it's great but one difference is at least with IMF like it you know Ethan [TS]

00:14:44 ◼   ► Hunt would break into apple and he would write it [TS]

00:14:47 ◼   ► but he would write the code himself you know and he would be with benji benji [TS]

00:15:31 ◼   ► Richmond have a better idea that I would but like there may be a way that [TS]

00:15:34 ◼   ► somebody super-smart could do that in but that's not really what the point is [TS]

00:15:40 ◼   ► here that the point is to create legal precedent right I I'm they're not even [TS]

00:15:44 ◼   ► they're not even trying [TS]

00:15:45 ◼   ► in the last week I've I am I one of the things that's come up as this has gone [TS]

00:15:51 ◼   ► on is is more more about how there's no way that Apple could create this and [TS]

00:15:59 ◼   ► then destroy it [TS]

00:16:00 ◼   ► well I mean technically it's possible that they could create this user once [TS]

00:16:03 ◼   ► and then erase all you know traces of it and start over but for any kind of any [TS]

00:16:09 ◼   ► any case where they would need to show in court it has to be preserved you [TS]

00:16:15 ◼   ► can't have evidence that was generated using a tool that you've been destroyed [TS]

00:16:24 ◼   ► the slippery slope phrase it's like hear it over and over and over again and it [TS]

00:16:28 ◼   ► starts to lose meaning but I really feel like it's perfectly apt hear that when [TS]

00:16:31 ◼   ► you start down this path and it just leads and you don't even know where it's [TS]

00:16:34 ◼   ► going to wind up right the fact that you have to preserve tools that are used to [TS]

00:16:38 ◼   ► generate evidence in a criminal case is you know and rightly so that's that's [TS]

00:16:44 ◼   ► what it should be but it just shows that you can you know there's no way that [TS]

00:16:47 ◼   ► they could create this and destroy it [TS]

00:16:49 ◼   ► yeah that's one of the ways that the San Bernardino case is a perfect storm [TS]

00:16:53 ◼   ► because i don't i really don't think there is any kind of criminal case going [TS]

00:16:56 ◼   ► on because the two suspects are dead [TS]

00:16:58 ◼   ► I mean so yeah right what is it exactly you mean they're not prosecuting anybody [TS]

00:17:02 ◼   ► but they're looking for more people but what if they do find a text message on [TS]

00:17:09 ◼   ► the phone and it's to somebody else and they're like we're gonna prosecute this [TS]

00:17:13 ◼   ► guy well now there is a lawsuit and the way that they found the guy was using [TS]

00:17:17 ◼   ► this tool so even if there's no criminal case against these the two shooters [TS]

00:17:21 ◼   ► there's you know the whole point of wanting to look at the phone on a [TS]

00:17:26 ◼   ► surface is is that they're looking for any other anybody else who they might [TS]

00:17:29 ◼   ► have been in conspiring with right what else is going on with this phone thing a [TS]

00:17:39 ◼   ► lot of bad commentary i do find that and again I guess it's it's well one of the [TS]

00:17:49 ◼   ► things that's interesting i say this one of the things that's interesting about [TS]

00:17:51 ◼   ► it is that it doesn't fall neatly on the left right political divide and in [TS]

00:17:57 ◼   ► general the political right is a little bit more friendly to law enforcement and [TS]

00:18:02 ◼   ► the left is more friendly or or you know more or but more in favor of civil [TS]

00:18:08 ◼   ► rights and civil liberties right so the ACLU is perceived probably correctly so [TS]

00:18:14 ◼   ► as a left-leaning organization and you know and so and in some sense this is [TS]

01:03:54 ◼   ► iphone success and success plus which by all accounts and but just by common [TS]

01:03:59 ◼   ► sense because they're almost certainly more expensive have a superior camera [TS]

01:04:10 ◼   ► it's not like they took the camera from the blank iphone and stuck in this that [TS]
