>> Yes, it can, and I explained exactly how in the original post. It's true I got some of the technical details wrong, but the substance of the post was and is correct

No you were wrong. You claimed that if the FBI was competent they could retrieve the key from the flash. There were no technical details discussed at all. (you could trivially google this issue and find out what you suggested doesn't work)

The ACLU is describing an attack on the PIN not the key. You acknowledge this in another comment on this thread so I have no idea why you are claiming here that the FBI can get past the encryption in any way; which as others have said doesn't work.

Yes. And so did I.
