I was about to say almost exactly this. A country in which encryption requires a golden key is the country all pedophiles will want to move to.

Also, I agree that it's shitty, but sometimes you can only fight fear tactics with scarier fear tactics.

The problem is that the general public is going to take "unbreakable encryption" at face value. So don't worry, unbreakable encryption prevents the hacker from getting access to the golden key, because without the golden key even the government can't break into things. The whole thing feeds on itself.

So here's what we do guys: put the golden key in the black box!

Aren't there already documented cases of domestic abuse enabled by Find My iPhone? How much would you bet that whoever knew about and exploited the bug that leaked all those private celeb pictures didn't also have access to all the power of Find My iPhone as well?

Yes - either that, or naked photos of you on the internet. Imagine hackers taking every picture in your camera roll and posting it to the internet.
