Encryption performance is too strong, the UK said it wants to ban iPhone

The British government is trying to legislate to ban users from using encrypted communications. In other words, any encryption system that the British government cannot crack will be banned. This bill is mainly to deal with terrorists and better prevent terrorist incidents. Therefore, the iPhone, known for its security, will face the following choices:

1. Open the back door to the British government

2. Abandon the use of encryption system

3. Stop providing products or services to British citizens.

Apple can almost take an indifferent attitude towards the UK market because it has little impact on Apple's profits. So, will Apple stop selling iPhones in the UK? Perhaps the probability of this option is high. Abandoning encryption services or opening the back door to the UK government will have an incredible impact on the security of Apple users, which will affect Apple's global customers.

The bill also affects large technology companies such as WhatsApp, Facebook, and Snapchat. The violation of privacy rights as a result of counter-terrorism may cause a rebound in these technology companies.

In fact, when it comes to the iphone encryption system, the government’s “not smooth” is not just the United Kingdom. Some time ago, the US Department of Justice asked Apple to help unlock the iPhone of a defendant’s suspect, but Apple said that although it is technically The ability to do this, but for a variety of reasons can not be implemented. Apple believes that such an approach will damage the company's public image and bring additional burdens. However, the US Department of Justice does not seem to be buying this, and rejected the reasons for Apple this week.

In a statement replied to the Eastern District Court of New York, the US Department of Justice stated that Apple should comply with the requirements of the Ministry of Justice to decrypt the suspect’s mobile phone content, because Apple’s operating system is licensed to users, not ultimately sold to users, and in this case Mobile phones have a very close relationship with the case.

"Apple can't use the legal rules of software licensing in this way, and later claims that it has no obligations and responsibilities to help law enforcement agencies investigate," the Justice Department said in a statement.
