One seems doable, and one does not.   The debugger can easily trace out the firmware route the processor follows (like when opening an encrypted email), removing much mystery.   The firmware source might even be available from Apple (to the FBI), which makes it be hours or days instead of weeks or months. But at least it seems possible, the debug box can do anything Apples phone processor and firmware can do, and can watch Apple do it, and Apple does seem able to do it.   But it is not happening, so I suppose smart encryption may have designed ways around that too?    However still, Apples processor can do it...  But if access requires typing the key, then all bets are off.</blockquote>
