If I have a business in Tooele, Utah, I have to have “Knox Box” on the building with a key in it for the building. The fire department has a key for all the knox boxes. Is that much more invasive than unlocking your phone? Nobody is screaming about that. Happens in many cities.
If you have windows in your house, anyone can punch one out and get into your house. But you all have windows. Cops can pull you over with probable cause now. Are you suggesting that if the code gets released in the wild cops are going to engage in an illegal search using this tool? If they are going to mess with you they will simply plant something on you. If this code gets into the wild and is abused in this nature, abut 50 milliseconds later there will be a new version of iOS that will not work with it. So, firemen can be trusted, right? More than the NSA? Drunken fireman buddy with a cop that wants to use the knox box key can be trusted? The IRS can put all my banking and financial in the cloud now as can my bank. A disgruntled employee is all it would take. The bank and the IRS are more trustworthy than the NSA? I don’t have any family pictures that I would be worried if they got published. I am just not catching this paranoid cynicism that seems to be attached to this issue.

Do you want all your private information (banking, financial, family pictures, etc.) now "in the cloud" for anyone with access to see?

What happens if Apple comes back a week later and says "oops, sorry... we nuked it". The FBI wants Apple to write a new IOS version that will not erase the phone after 10 attempts at the login code. Then the FBI would load that onto the phone, and attempt to brute force the phone combo. At that point, the FBI could do that to any phone in the future as well. Apple is doing the right thing here.

No "software on every phone" to do this. Just that ONE phone. Get the data, then incinerate the device.
