A fight between Apple and the FBI seems to be brewing once again following the massacre at a Texas church that left 26 people dead on Sunday. Combs did not mention Apple by name, but seemed to cast blame on the company’s encryption technology preventing them from accessing the phone. “Our team immediately reached out to the FBI after learning from their press conference on Tuesday that investigators were trying to access a mobile phone,” an Apple spokesman said. Had law enforcement reached out to Apple within 48 hours after the deadly rampage, there could have been a possibility of unlocking the phone. The FBI ultimately paid an unidentified vendor for a hacking tool to access the phone without Apple's help, averting a court battle.
