FBI Confirms Working Attack on San Bernardino iPhone, Requests Case Be Dropped (PDF)

The Department of Justice has filed their status report:

The government has now successfully accessed the data stored on Farook’s iPhone and therefore no longer requires the assistance from Apple Inc. mandated by Court’s Order Compelling Apple Inc. to Assist Agents in Search dated February 16, 2016.

Accordingly, the government hereby requests that the Order Compelling Apple Inc. to Assist Agents in Search dated February 16, 2016 be vacated.

A battle is over, but the war has only just begun.
