@Entrepreneur Initially I thought yes, only because I assumed the breach is limited to one phone. As a collective/permanent iOS feature, no

@Entrepreneur If anyone votes yes to this poll, they don't understand the depth of question being asked.

@Entrepreneur Giving the government a key to the back door of your privacy, also give a spare key to any hacker that wants to enter as well
