WASHINGTON: Three US news media groups filed a lawsuit to get the FBI to release details of how it hacked the iPhone of the man who with his wife shot and killed 14 people in San Bernardino last year.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation said it wanted to access Syed Rizwan Farook’s locked iPhone 5c to look into possible links to the Islamic State group, but phonemaker Apple refused to help, citing privacy concerns.
