Apple now has three extra days to fight the court order that would force the company to help the FBI (http://www.macworld.com/article/3034028/security/apple-ordered-to-assist-in-unlocking-iphone-used-by-san-bernardino-attacker.html) get into the iPhone 5c at the heart of the San Bernardino terrorism case. According to Bloomberg (http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-02-19/apple-said-to-get-more-time-to-oppose-order-to-unlock-iphone), Apple must respond by February 26. That might not seem like a whole lot of time, but Apple has been preparing for this fight for years.</p><figure class="medium right" itemprop="associatedMedia" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/ImageObject" itemid="https://cms-images.idgesg.net/images/article/2015/08/iphone_5c_green-100608817-medium.jpg">
