The British government has secretly ordered Apple to create a backdoor in the end-to-end encrypted version of its iCloud storage service. Two civil rights groups, Liberty and Privacy International, filed complaints on Thursday, March 14, 2025, describing the order as "unacceptable and disproportionate" and warning of "global consequences." The groups fear that this request for access could have worldwide repercussions on user privacy and security.
