Everyone on HN seems to be opposed to government mandated backdoors, but want Apple to install one anyway for the sake of some hand-wavey notion that Apple has undue “power”.

This control is a feature and one of the reasons I use iOS. I value a system I can trust to be free of malware. I know that when I recommend iPhone to friends and family, I will never have to field a support call involving a mountain of malware that was installed because they were tricked into clicking “ok”.

I trust my iPhone way more than my desktop, laptop, or any SaaS. Same with my iPad. I can’t wait for the end of the era of bad-guys-win-by-default.
