> How many criminals are you willing to let get away with their crimes? Apple has currently built a system that allows child abusers and some rapists to be all but immune from conviction.

Nonsense! Believe it or not, prior to the existence of smart phones it was possible to convict people of abuse and rape; in fact, it happened quite regularly. The evidence against such criminals need not be on a smartphone; after all, there are the victims; there are witnesses; there is forensic evidence.
