Because you're a terrorist that needs file encryption in the form of a passcode?
>>53529958
"under certain circumstances" meaning having the encryption key.

He's trolling. The best thing you can do is calmly reply to him and move on.
Nothing rustles a troll more than staying calm.

I WOULD post a picture of the real reason you prefer Apple, but this is a SFW board.

No, it literally means they can unlock iphones without the encryption key.

While I generally agree that trusting a corporation is naive, you can still interpret what their leaders say if you have a realistic lens through which to filter their words.
Many companies (Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc...) have an obvious stake in collecting and analyzing your data, but it's not so obvious what stake Apple has. They run iCloud, but they don't advertise with the data you put there. They don't even really advertise that much (iAd is the exception that illustrates what a vestigial organ it is).
Given that there's no clear business incentive to market with your data, it's understandable that they've chosen to go the other way, investing resources so they can make the claim that your data is *especially* safe with them.
That's why they have stuff like the Secure Enclave, which makes the proposition of breaking into a newer iDevice especially hairy. Without a competing motivation to turn that data into "insights" for advertising, Apple's gone and actually implemented a level of security that we're unlikely to see in ad-supported products and services (like Google Apps).
All this is to say that if you're dead, people probably can't get into your phone. There are so many ways that people can get into a living person's account, mostly through social engineering, that at this point most of the engineering man-hours that go into making a system more technically robust is probably being wasted. If we could turn each engineer's hour into 10 hours of instruction for users to get them to use better passwords and OPSEC in general, we would no longer see things like The Fappening and whatnot.
There was a paper my reading group (grad school) read where Google concluded that a staggering proportion of security questions were just flat out guessable, because users lied in predictable ways. These security questions aren't treated as especially privileged (either by users or system designers), and that needs to change.

File encryption and security of personal information is what the United States of America calls freedom. Freedom from government and public view. You give the government access to your personal phone, they can gain access to all your txt messages, photos, phone calls, your phones microphone, and even your bank account information. If it's on your phone the government will have it. By our constitution that is Illegal

>>53530877
It's marketing stupid, big difference from damage control.
This is all just a conspiracy to raise apple's falling stock anyway. FBI already has access to apple's data
>what is at stake
>>53529913
Why won't those faggots just come out and say that this has nothing to do with terrorism and just say that encryption is under attack.
