Cops Can Crack an iPhone In Under Two Minutes 375
Sparrowvsrevolution writes "Micro Systemation, a Stockholm-based company, has released a video showing that its software can easily bypass the iPhone's four-digit passcode in a matter of seconds. It can also crack Android phones, and is designed to dump the devices' data to a PC for easy browsing, including messages, GPS locations, web history, calls, contacts and keystroke logs. The company's director of marketing says it uses an undisclosed vulnerability in the devices it targets to run a program on the phone that brute-forces its passcode. He says the company's business is 'booming' and that it's sold the devices to law enforcement and military customers in 60 countries. He says Micro Systemation's biggest customer is the U.S. military."

One to put in a requisition to the city council for Micro Systemations softwhore.
666 to increase traffic citations to pay for it...
Then 4 or 5 to install it.

Ooh! I love the non-sequitur game!
Good luck entering a PIN so you can call 911 when you're being physically assaulted.
Your turn.
