Apple to UK - "No backdoors"

Apple says it will remove services such as FaceTime and iMessage from the UK rather than weaken security if new proposals are made law and acted upon.
The government is seeking to update the Investigatory Powers Act (IPA) 2016.
It wants messaging services to clear security features with the Home Office before releasing them to customers.
The act lets the Home Office demand security features are disabled, without telling the public. Under the update, this would have to be immediate.
Currently, there has to be a review, there can also be an independent oversight process and a technology company can appeal before taking any action.
Because of the secrecy surrounding these demands, little is known about how many have been issued and whether they have been complied with.
But many messaging services currently offer end-to-end encryption - so messages can be unscrambled by only the devices sending and receiving them.
WhatsApp and Signal are among the platforms to have opposed a clause in the Online Safety Bill allowing the communications regulator to require companies to install technology to scan for child-abuse material in encrypted messaging apps and other services.
They will not comply with it, they say, with Signal threatening to "walk" from the UK.
Apple has also opposed the plan.
