Under Apple\u2019s old operating system, if an iPhone is protected by a passcode that the government can\u2019t bypass, the government has to send the phone to Apple together with a search warrant. Apple will unlock at least some of the contents of the phone pursuant to the warrant. Under the new operating system, however, Apple has devised a way to defeat lawful search warrants. \u201cUnlike our competitors,\u201d Apple\u2019s new privacy policy boasts, \u201cApple cannot bypass your passcode and therefore cannot access this data.\u201d Warrants will go nowhere, as \u201cit\u2019s not technically feasible for [Apple] to respond to government warrants for the extraction of this data from devices in their possession running iOS 8.\u201d Anyone with any iPhone can download the new warrant-thwarting operating system for free, and it comes automatically with the new iPhone 6.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WaPo: Volokh: Apple\u2019s dangerous game by Orin Kerr: Apple has announced that it has designed its new operating system, iOS8, to thwart lawful search warrants.
