Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has unlocked dead terrorist’s iPhone 5C involved in San Bernardino shooting without the help of Apple. Department of Justice says that FBI has successfully accessed iPhone’s data with help of an undisclosed alternative method. Apple has issued a statement, saying the company is committed to continuing its fight for civil liberties and collective security and privacy. DoJ: “The government has now successfully accessed the data stored on Farook’s iPhone and therefore no longer requires the assistance of Apple”
