The Justice Department wants Apple to unlock at least 12 iPhones that are not connected to the San Bernardino terror attack, and it’s seeking court orders to make it happen.
Until now it was believed the DoJ only wanted Apple to help the FBI unlock one iPhone that was connected to last December’s San Bernardino shootings – which alone is cause for concern.
Now The Wall Street Journal claims the Justice Department wants court orders to access at least 12 other phones. According to the Journal, these cases “don’t involve terrorism charges”, with one regarding an iPhone involved in a drug investigation.
