Court documents shed new light on UK-Apple row over user data

Court documents reveal UK government's broad requests for Apple user data, including access to encrypted information stored via a service called Advanced Data Protection (ADP). The request, made under the Investigatory Powers Act, aimed to extend beyond encrypted data and potentially encompass a wider range of Apple customer information. Despite US officials indicating the demand had been dropped, the UK government may still be pursuing access to data from non-UK users. The clash between Apple and the UK government underscores the ongoing debate over privacy and national security concerns.
