The FBI needs Apple to disarm the feature that erases the content of
iPhones on the 10th wrong password so that agents can gain access to the
phone to learn if there are other sleeper cells or plots.

When Apple refused the court order, Apple defenders claimed it was
impossible to unlock the phone. In court papers filed last week, Apple
admits that’s not true, but still claims an “unreasonable burden.”
