Is this in reference to a news event? Apple has people who coach law enforcement on accessing iPhones, and one of the things they do is get them to access the phone quickly before one of the security time delays set in and the phone can’t be unlocked without bypassing the hardware encryption, which is an expensive process. One of the big mistakes the FBI made in the San Bernardino case was to ignore Apple’s direction and accidentally lock themselves out.

I don’t know what the response time is for Apple to return customer records such as purchase dates, iCloud login times, etc. Again, I’m interested to know if this in reference to a particular incident.

No not really. I was wondering how the process works since it takes 72hours from requesting an unlock at the provider until the unlock itself. I read online that the request gets pushed to the unlock servers in intervals and wondered why.

All my unlocks have been pretty much instant. I think its that provider pushing unlock to Apple at intervals. AT&T does they 3 day thing but that again is AT&T time to send it to Apple.
