Is there such a thing as security so good it's a danger to society?That's the bigger picture at hand as Apple continues to fight an order to unlock a terrorist's iPhone.That fight made its way to Capitol Hill on Tuesday for a hearing in front of the House Judiciary Committee, the government body that covers matters relating to how law and order is enforced in the US.

Not by police and not by technology companies.
