The reason they (the UK) dropped this mandate was because Israeli already had a "back door" into the iPhone OS/platform. There was an article several years ago (10+/-) about the FBI wanting access to a captured terrorist iPhone's encrypted data wherein Apple refused to cooperate. Unbeknownst to Apple, the Israeli's (Mossad) had broken Apple's encryption and had an exploit to recover data from any of their any of Apple's products. Apple was not happy about this and demanded Israel give them the exploit. Israel told Apple they should have cooperated with the US's request and did not provide their exploit.
When encryption is created, by a human, the coder always builds a "back door". This is intentionally done in order to get into it in the event something goes wrong with its operation. This is the coder's "failsafe". They usually will encode several back doors.
The glowies have had backdoors into every single processor made in the last 2-3 DECADES...
I know for some of their backdoors, your PC doesn't even need to be ON for them to be able to get onto your computer...
Nobody knows exactly how big and bad the backdoor issue is, as it's all classified, and Intel and other chip manufacturers have had to let glowies into their development with doors closed to Intel and the like.
Not quite. If such vulnerabilities exist and they're reported to Apple and their engineers and management actually want to fix it, it can happen. Then it would just be up to the individual users to keep their phones up to date.
do anons see just how close we are coming to a complete loss of privacy and total top-down Big Tech control? All Apple users were thisssss close to having an entire foreign government able to access their data! WOWZERS, Apple sure has something mighty sensitive to protect, eh? Alllllllll that data.... all that sweet sweet secrets.... mmmm, so juicy... just press this widdle button to share it all 🖲️
EVERY VICTORY OVER SKYNET IS YUGE
BIG TECH SHOULD ALL BE PUBLIC UTILITY
that way they're Constitutionally-bound entities. And this whole story would have never even been a fucking QUESTION.
Reading your comment of 3 days ago "Not to mention something in a book called The Celestine Prophecy that says (and I agree) that people shouldn't have more children than be cared for by the adults on duty" There is Adoption and Celestine Prophecy is a "New Age Religion" nothing Christian about it. Explains why you took the Lord's Name in vain.
Very,very nice win.
I didn't even know this fight was going on.
I wonder if the Brits will just borrow the NSA's key?
5 eyes
Don't be fooled...
This is window dressing.
EVERY.THING. has a backdoor on the hardware level & has for decades.
The Apple thing is laughable... it's all a marketing ploy to keep dweebs buying their bs hardware.
Power of the Tariffs.
I fear its too little, too late. Only way we push back now is telling tje UK to fuck off or get a digital tea party
Privacy is an illusion.
Correct

So, does the back door still exist?
Obummer says it does, and Big Mike still knows where it is.

Intel ME (Management Engine)
Spectre
Meltdown
Probably many more we don't know about.
It’s wild that they had to “agree to drop”. Fuck what they agree with, they should have been laughed at for even considering demanding that.
Who here remembers the HDCP Master Key Leak? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-bandwidth_Digital_Content_Protection#Master_Key_Release
Aside from government spying, all it takes is one leak before iOS would have lost all its security.

“ I’ll do the spying around here.”—Apple
It's been rumored that Starmer is a back door man.
I believe that is correct. kek
Isn't this all a show however, to make it seem like the CIA's backdoor(s) isn't really there?
Take that, Skynet! Right in your ugly FACE.

Has there ever been a time when the UK wasn’t ruled by cunts?
I had to search what "FG" meant and I am horrified as a Christian, that you are sending Tulsi blessings."Get behind me Satan"
Please do pardon my habitual expletive that has zero to do with God.

If UK asked for it then someone in U.S. government was paying them to.
