White House Withdraws Bill Support Forcing Tech Giants Hack Data Encryption

The Apple vs FBI case seems to get warmer day by day. After the recent mass attack by a shooter in USA, federal agency was reportedly said to pay over a million dollars for getting the shooters phone unlocked. After this incident the intelligence commission is imposing fine on companies failing to comply with their orders. A long drawn debate was sparked between the tech companies and lawmakers that they should comply with their orders of helping them monitor the conversation. President Obama said last month that he would support the cause behind the proposed bill however it seems he is not going to do so now.

White House Withdraws Bill Support Forcing Tech Giants Hack Data Encryption

The intelligence commission of USA wants to impose criminal penalty on companies failing to comply with the order of the court while cracking on the data encryption however president Obama says the government should not move so far by penalizing companies with criminal penalties.

The support behind the bill has been declined by the white House so far however the case against Apple is still in the court of law. It FBI wins the case then Apple would have to accept their challenge towards official government interference in data encryption. FBI has also cleared in their statement that the crack used by them to bail the data encryption for IPhone will not be working for all the models above IPhone 5 that is IPhone 5, IPhone 5c and IPhone 5s and above models.

Does it mean that technically it is no ways possible to crack down on Apple devices? Have they left no loop in their system and are there no way out to crack them down? US Government is trying to find a way to find a crack to this mess.
