This is the same scenario with the Federal Endtable of Intimidation demanding that Apple give them access to the core keys, so they could "unlock the phone" of a supposed killer.

Forgetting the live fire drill part, we only have a few options.

1. they already have ways to break an iPhone, and are doing this to cover up
2. they want all iPhone users to know they are not safe.

That there was anything on that phone that was of any actual use is nil.

This is all propaganda. TPTshouldn'tB are desperate to start a war.
If any of the propaganda was true, you would see work all around this nation at power-substations. And let me tell you, if smart meters were smart, they would have routines for helping bring the power back online. AND THEY DON'T! >:-(
