FBI Flooded With Requests to Unlock Phones
The FBI faced hundreds of requests from state and local agencies to access encrypted or damaged smartphones in criminal cases, beyond the San Bernardino iPhone. Over four months since last October more than 500 devices were sought by the bureau and regional labs, amid a national trend of encryption hurdles and the Apple court battle. The data, partially offset by an external party aiding the Farook device, comes as authorities report over 1,000 devices blocked from content in recent months.
