If you think this is just about a terrorist's phone then you are naive. It's about setting a precedent.

It's a slippery slope, if we compromise our rights for a false sense of security then we'll be taken advantage of in the future since all they'll need to do is link something to terrorists and we'll be all too happy to throw our rights away.

There's going to be nothing of use on that phone, I'm calling it now. The terrorists behind that attack were likely acting alone and the FBI know that, they just want to set a precedent so they can do it in future.
