Apple clearly believes that there's a big enough market for the secondary sales of iPhones in India to take advantage of. Tim Cook's company appears to be an unstoppable steam train when it comes to distributing iPhones to retailers and consumers across the globe, so it seems logical that it can apply the same level of efficiency to used hardware.

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 today has officially filed a formal objection to the court order that effectively tried to force the company into assisting the FBI with unlocking an iPhone 5c that belonged to one of the San Bernardino shooters. Apple's General Counsel, Bruce Sewell, had previously filed a statement prior to the congressional hearing yesterday that outlined the reasons why the company believes the original court order should never have been granted.
The latest discovery in iOS 9.3 points to a feature that will enable IT administrators in companies to have greater control over the iPhones and iPads that the company lend to its employees for work.
