If your referring to my last post, I wasn't saying that the government is or isn't involved, I was referencing the governments ability to bypass the Patriot's Act and listen to our conversations if its in the name of our protections, and I was comparing that to Apple's new ability to peek into our iPhones/iTouches. It was only a comparison. As far as I know, the government isn't involved in anyway. Sorry about the confusion.
