An apple a day keeps the FBI away

May 12, 2016 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Estafania Torres |Staff Writer| Many people would have assumed that Apple would have chosen the most ethical route when asked to break into the San Bernardino shooter's iPhone. It was a surprise when Apple denied helping the FBI, but ultimately Apple made the best decision for their business. The FBI asked Apple to make a backdoor that would help break into the San Bernardino shooter's iPhone. This backdoor, which does not even exist (yet), not only grants access to this specific phone but to all Apple phones. The bold hardware and software company did what any wise business would do when rejecting the government's request. Given that they are one of the biggest … [Read more...] about An apple a day keeps the FBI away

Decoding Apple: Cook refuses

March 3, 2016 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Carolyn Solar |Staff Writer| In response to the San Bernardino mass shooting on Dec. 2, 2015, the FBI asked Apple to design a software that would allow them to gain access to the iPhones used by shooters Syed Farook and his wife Tashfeen Malik. Apple is refusing to cooperate with the demands the court has ordered. With access to the phone, the FBI is hoping to find out whether others were involved in the attack. Specifically, the FBI wants the company to disable the feature that wipes an iPhone clean after 10 password entry attempts. In a situation as severe as this one, why is Apple refusing to assist the government? Unlocking the device would allow FBI access to … [Read more...] about Decoding Apple: Cook refuses

San Bernardino still in turmoil over bankruptcy

October 18, 2015 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Cherie Brower IStaff WriterI Money talks, and the federal court is now demanding answers from the financially floundering city of San Bernardino. Following the notorious municipal bankruptcy protection filing of 2012, San Bernardino has failed to produce a successful audit of its 2012-13 fiscal year. In the face of a $45 million deficit, an increase in costs, and a downward spiral in revenues, San Bernardino filed for Chapter 9 in 2012. A bankruptcy plan was set into place, with provisions to aid the city in regaining a footing on the forlorn financial outlook. It has now been over three years since the initial declaration and the City of San Bernardino has yet to produce a … [Read more...] about San Bernardino still in turmoil over bankruptcy

FBI tries to fight cellphone encryption

October 25, 2014 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Anthony Silva |Staff Writer| The FBI has begun preparations to take action against Apple and Google’s plans to keep cell phone information private, according to a New York Times article. Apple and Google announced new software that would automatically make the contents of any cell phone private by using codes that the companies claim they won’t be able to unlock. This announcement came in the wake of last year’s National Security Agency (NSA) leak, in which Edward Snowden disclosed confidential documents about government agencies collecting information on Americans. The proposed encryption would make law enforcement investigations involving phones difficult, according to the New … [Read more...] about FBI tries to fight cellphone encryption

Let the stalking begin; privacy issues arise with Google Glass

May 24, 2013 by Archived posts Leave a Comment

By Phil Ruddle | Staff Writer Last week the Chronicle published a feature about an upcoming new era to technology called Google Glass. If you missed it, you can find part one at coyotechronicle.net. In last week’s issue, we learned all about Glass and its features as they are computerized glasses that can take pictures, record video, give you directions and translate foreign languages. However, the issue of privacy arises when you snap a picture or record someone in public without their permission. There is no LED light in the front of the device that is blinking or making any indication of telling anybody that its recording. The product is in its early stage, so it will … [Read more...] about Let the stalking begin; privacy issues arise with Google Glass
