Do yourself a favor and edumacate yourself about the Spectre and Meltdown vulnerabilities. They've been around for a VERY long time and still exist today on virtually all computers - because processors across the board have to be replaced, and the manufacturers including Apple, haven't yet had the time to do so. The patches issued to date have mitigated the vulnerabilities a bit but still haven't solved them.

Zero day vulnerabilities abound. These are vulnerabilities that are undocumented, known to only a handful of hackers, corporations or nations. If THEY are aware of vulnerabilities, why shouldn't manufacturers be aware of a few as well?

You show your ignorance every time you claim to KNOW that truly secure systems exist. Nothing is secure.

They exploited a bug, somehow, on old software and hadrware, an IPhone 6. Not an iphone 6s, or 7 , nor X. It also had a 4 digit passcode vs. 6 today, and 10 tries and the phone ERASES ITSELF.

You keep repeating stuff that isn’t relevant to the claim of an Apple designed backdoor, which was the original subject.

You are too dumb to stay on topic, and too dumb to tell the difference. I already told you that occasional bugs can be exploited, but they are hard to find, and very hard with current hardware and software, and Apple plugs tnem regulatly when tney are found/reported. That’s why there are thousands of iPhones in the hands of police in the country that cannot be accessed TODAY.
