Despite walking away from a high-profile confrontation, the FBI is not giving up on its cat-and-mouse game with Apple over access to iPhone data, and the issue has now moved to New York.

On Friday, the Feds appealed a decision last month by a Brooklyn magistrate, James Orenstein, to reject their demand that Apple help them gain access to an iPhone used by a drug dealer. The appeal notes:

"The government's application is not moot, and the government continues to require Apple's assistance in accessing the data that it is authorized to search by warrant."
