IPhone unlock cost $ 9 million!
Sen. Bernardino has released nine million dollars for the iPhone unlock, the top Democrat member of the Senate Committee observing the US intelligence agency FBI, Diane Feinstein said. In this case, the FBI considers the amount of money spent as secret information.
The detective agency has kept its identity hidden by whom it was done. Although the FBI is in the face of the case filed by the Associated Press and other news agencies about publishing this information.
During the interrogation of the Senate Judiciary Committee on Wednesday, the FBI director James Came was questioned during the interrogation. He said, "San Bernardino incident happened when I happened to be very shocked and you created the way to open that device, and then the FBI has to spend $ 9 million on hacking to open that device."
"And later, I could understand some of the reasons, there was some good reason behind accessing that device."
In 2016, a little less attention was paid to the amount of money. He said the government had spent so much money, which would be more than what he would earn in the remaining seven years of his job. According to the CNBC report, the US media said that the figure was at least $ 13 million.
On December 2, 2015, Syed Rizwan Faruq and his wife Tashfin Malik shot dead in San Bernardino, California, USA, killing 14 people, and 22 others injured in the incident. 28-year-old Faruk was a Pakistani immigrant and 29-year-old Malik was a Pakistani. Both of them were killed in police firing.
The FBI then went to court to order Apple to order to unlock Farooq's iPhone and to create a single 'backdoor' for the iPhone Unle to investigate. The court ruled in favor of the FBI, but Apple was stunned. The reason for the protection of customer privacy is in the legal battle, by refusing to obey the order. After the debate over the technology sector, the FBI finally unlocked the iPhone for the third time with the help of the FBI. Then, through whom it was unlocked and how much money has been spent, the court has sent a document to the court and other news agencies including the APY.
No comment was received from the FBI until Friday, it has been reported in the report
