The Constitution protects you from "unreasonable" search.  I don't see this as any threat to any of my freedoms.

If the FBI are asking for Apple to give them a customised IOS that circumvents security on every IOS device - which is what Apple seem to be suggesting - then Apple are correct to refuse.


If the FBI are only asking purely for the data from this one specific phone - and allow Apple to control the process and not give up the customised SIF - then That would be reasonable.
