Apple vs FBI – The iPhone unlocking case is gathering pace with a hearing date set for 1st March 2016.

Now for the first time, other tech giants have stepped into the ring to officially say the will be supporting Apple and submitting legal briefs/documents to the courts in support of Apple.

The current companies who will legally be supporting Apple are –

– Microsoft
– Facebook
– Google
– Twitter

And I am sure more will follow. This is such an emotive case and yet at the same time a legal precedent too.

Updated – BlackBerry and Verizon have joined to support Apple.
