Its amazing to me that Apple is making a big case about it. They claim that they will have to write an operating system just for the purpose of getting around the security.

When in reality...they would only need to modify the existing OS to just bypass the security.
...in this case they would actually just be taking code out.
Or simply just have the "password checker" class function return a "true".
Basically changing one line of code.

I really dont get the stand point from either side...
