ASCI also ranks carriers in the US, with this year’s customer satisfaction index unchanged from the year before. T-Mobile came in at No. 1, then we have Verizon, AT&T, US. Cellular and Sprint.

Regarding Apple, it is worth to mention that recently, the security of a terroristās iPhone 5 and iPhone 7 was eventually circumvented by the FBI. They claim to have access to the two phones content bypassing the encryption.
According to the US Attorney General William Barr, the FBI was able to bypass Appleās protections. Thus, discovering that the terrorist was in contact with Al-Qaeda organization.
As a reminder, he killed three American sailors at Naval Air Station Pensacola in California in December and injured eight others. He was a member of the Saudi military and was on an internship in the United States. He was 21 years old.
Trump administration has askedĀ Apple to unlock the iPhone last January, but the manufacturer refused. Locked iPhones are encrypted and Apple has no way of accessing content. The FBI has then created a whole new system that bypasses the security of iOS. And it looks that they succeeded indeed.
