The tech giant said providing encryption keys was a standard response to a court order. But companies like Apple and Meta set up their systems so such a privacy violation isn’t possible.
Didn’t this happen with an iPhone a few years back? FBI couldn’t get into a suspect’s phone, Apple stood firm publicly, but then somehow the FBI got in anyway? Maybe I’m misremembering.

Apparantly that suspect had a 4 digit pin so once they bypassed the Secure Enclave, they can brute force it in 10 seconds
For Phones, 20 character alphanumeric password is a hassle, but for computers, you can easily use a 10 word passphrase.
If you use a long password, bypassing the password entry limit doesn’t matter if the algorithm itself is secure.
In this case, the key was uploaded to a microsoft account… so you don’t even need a back door, just walk right in…

Weird, when you type your root password it posts as stars.

Why is it always password123?
That was the opposite. The FBI got in, but without Apples help.
Also iCloud has a distinct option to not give Apple your recovery keys. I believe the had to disable it in the UK to comply with regulations.
