  • ...edited but kept a note, it was bugging me.

    I remember that case, yeah apple does some good here. I remember 404media running a story about iphones rebooting preventing unlock by police recently( 1 and 2 ). I guess you/they really don't want any present established for that.

  • yeah I admit 'apple caved' was kinda just a gut reaction 'apple bad - encrypted backup good'.

    If they fully caved we likely wouldn't have known about it, they'd have just put in a backdoor and given themselves and/or the uk encryption keys. Denying encrypted backups because of this is probably best.

    You could argue apple does have the resources for a a legal battle, but you also can't really expect them to do that. They're not liberty or big brother watch. I doubt that would go well in domestic courts anyway, after that, the ECHR could be sympathetic on proportionallity & art.8 grounds but its a lot of effort.

    maybe I should edit the title?

    Apple pulled end-to-end encrypted backups in the UK after request for backdoor
