the article tactfully omits the fact that Apple will eagerly comply with a subpoena requesting the content of the messages. law enforcement is just disappointed they can't go through their usual channels by getting a wiretap warrant for the phone company. edit: okay, it's not omitted, the last line of the article says it very indirectly: Apple's privacy policy authorizes the company to divulge customers' information about customers to law enforcement when "reasonably necessary or appropriate" or to "comply with legal process."
