<p>In a new report, Reuters (http://www.reuters.com/article/us-apple-encryption-idUSKCN0XQ032) this evening is claiming that the FBI paid less than $1 million for the tool it used to unlock the San Bernardino gunman’s iPhone 5c. Apple, of course, denied to create a tool to do so, so the FBI went through a third-party to gain access (http://9to5mac.com/2016/03/28/fbi-accesses-data-on-terrorists-iphone-without-apple/). The report, citing “several U.S. government sources,” further claims that the technique can be used on any iPhone 5c running iOS 9.</p>
