Timmy had a change pf heart

Daily Beast: Apple CEO Tim Cook declared on Wednesday that his company wouldn’t comply with a government search warrant to unlock an iPhone used by one of the San Bernardinokillers, a significant escalation in a long-running debate between technology companies and the government over access to people’s electronically-stored private information.
But in a similar case in New York last year, Apple acknowledged that it could extract such data if it wanted to. And according to prosecutors in that case, Apple has unlocked phones for authorities at least 70 times since 2008. (Apple doesn’t dispute this figure.)
In other words, Apple’s stance in the San Bernardino case may not be quite the principled defense that Cook claims it is. In fact, it may have as much to do with public relations as it does with warding off what Cook called “an unprecedented step which threatens the security of our customers.”
What is Timmy up to?

He has figured out that banker bot is real, Microsoft gots one, and the bot needs to be human tamper-proofed.  Timmy wants a security enclave,  a hardware key with drivers, embedded into his telephones, and human tamper-proof.   

But Timmy is wrong abut his telephones becoming smart cards.  Microsoft gets it, they got the goodie, the distributed portfolio management. Timmy is running scared, he is tilting at windmills.

The FBI thing has nothing to do with banker bot, banker bot only encrypts probability models based on human trade transactions.  It is a completely unbiased technology.
