Apple's Eddy Cue is one of the more high-profile executives at the company due to his frequent appearances at Apple's product presentations in front of the media and an online crowd. The online-services boss generally stays hidden away behind the scenes when there's no public-facing event taking place, but has recently used a Spanish-language interview to get behind the Cupertino-based company in its fight against the government over iOS encryption and being forced to create a backdoor to the iPhone for the FBI.
As a company, Apple is no stranger to being talked about by individuals and news outlets on an almost daily basis. With that said, certain areas of focus have meant that Tim Cook's company has been consistently making the front-page news for a number of reasons - some positive, some negative - over the last few weeks. A newly leaked image has just arrived on the scene that thrusts Apple into the headlines once again, this time focusing on the potential hardware configuration of the September-bound iPhone 7 thanks to an early prototype case with an interesting physical design.
Latest rumor relying to Apple's preferred future screen technology for iPhone not only adds further fuel to the OLED fire, but it also introduces the idea that Apple is ready to go larger again, by introducing a 5.8-inch iPhone option that would dwarf the current iPhone 6s Plus model, which sits at 5.5-inches.
Apple Co-founder Steve "Woz" Wozniak has become the latest high-profile technology entrepreneur to chime in with an opinion on the Apple-FBI encryption situation. Wozniak took the opportunity as part of an appearance on a TV talk show to give an insight into his own personal opinion on the situation. As you might expect, Woz shares the opinions and values of Apple and its current CEO, Tim Cook, and wasn't shy in expressing those opinions as part of his appearance on the talk show.
Lavabit founder Ladar Levison is warning that if the FBI wins out in forcing Apple to comply with the Bernardino court order, iOS users may refuse to update their devices and tech companies may opt to leave the US.
After releasing iOS 9.3 beta 6, Apple has also dropped beta 6 seeds of OS X 10.11.4 and watchOS 2.2 for both developers and public beta testers.
John Miller, the New York Police Department's Counter-Terrorism Chief, has added to the Apple encryption drama by claiming that the Cupertino-based company is providing aid to various criminal elements by producing an iPhone that cannot be accessed by LEAs. Speaking at a radio show, Miller took the opportunity to offer his own personal thoughts on the encryption scandal that has rocked the technology industry over the last month or so.

Apple's decision to contest a legal order that tries to force it to provide a backdoor into the iPhone for the FBI has dramatically divided public and professional opinion over the last few weeks. A federal order has requested Apple to work in conjunction with the FBI in order to build what Tim Cook has referred to as "the software equivalent of cancer" in San Bernardino shooting case. Apple has made a formal appeal against that order, which will be heard on March 22nd. While most tech companies, both in and out of Silicon Valley, are in full support of Apple on the issue, and have now also filed amicus brief in support of Apple, one rival company Samsung has decided to take a neutral stance, of sorts, on it.
