This quote from the article is enlightening and gives me hope that Apple is doing the right thing:

  The FBI said it was “deeply concerned with the threat end-to-end and 
  user-only-access encryption pose,” according to a statement provided by 
  an agency spokeswoman. “This hinders our ability to protect the American 
  people from criminal acts ranging from cyberattacks and violence against 
  children to drug trafficking, organized crime and terrorism,” the 
  statement said. The FBI and law enforcement agencies need “lawful access 
  by design,” it said.
