FBI May Have Found A Way Into Terrorist's iPhone

  • The San Bernandino court hearing between the Department of Justice and Apple that was scheduled for Tuesday was postponed. 
  • The DOJ requested to postpone it after they said they may have found another way into the iPhone.
  • Federal investigators want to break into the phone, so they were pressuring Apple to create a special software that would let them bypass security features. 
  • Apple denied their request, saying that it would allow them to break into any iPhone.
  • Now that the FBI has found a new method of gaining access to the phone, they said they may no longer need Apple's assistance and they will report the results to the judge by April 5. 
  • They have not provided any information yet of how they will get into the phone.
