UK Government King’s Speech proposes “Cyber ASBO” with obvious risk of scope creep into censorship
Nobody can convince me that by the time it gets through parliament something with this name & frame won’t turn into a general TCN to gag nerd speech about cryptography and security:
The King’s Speech briefing notes also referenced proposed “Cyber Crime Risk Orders” […which] could give authorities powers to impose restrictions on individuals considered to pose an ongoing cyber threat, reflecting a wider shift among governments toward preventive disruption measures rather than relying solely on criminal prosecutions after attacks…

The UK Is Still Trying to Backdoor Encryption for Apple Users | Electronic Frontier Foundation
“…but if there are no British users then there will be nobody to spy upon?”
The initial order from January targeted the data of all Apple users. […] The new order provides insight into [what has changed:] the U.K. was just rewriting it to only apply to British users.

UK makes new attempt to access Apple cloud data | FT
Can anyone smell a dead horse?
The UK government has issued a new order to Apple to create a backdoor into its cloud storage service, this time targeting only British users’ data, despite US claims that Britain had abandoned all attempts to break the tech giant’s encryption.

Leverage the CLOUD Act To Protect Encryption | TechPolicy.Press
Pending any changes to the CLOUD Act by Congress, the Department of Justice should pull the US out of the CLOUD Act agreement with the UK unless the UK withdraws the order it issued to Apple. While there were reports in August that the UK had agreed to withdraw its order, court filings reportedly suggest the order is still in place. The US can cancel the US/UK agreement without cause, with 30 days’ notice.

Dass der britische Staat versucht, Apple zu einem umfassenden „Backdoor“-Zugang zu Kundendaten zu zwingen ist bekannt. Ein neuer Gerichtsbeschluss zeigt nun, dass das Innenministerium seine Forderungen noch nicht eingeschränkt hat – selbst für Kunden außerhalb des Vereinigten Königreichs, für die Apple bereits die optionale Extra‑Verschlüsselung für iCloud entfernte. Der Investigatory Powers‑Act gibt den britischen Behörden theoretisch extraterritoriale Zugriffsrechte, was zu Spannungen mit den USA und Kritik als „Snooper’s Charter“ geführt hat. Die Regierung bestätigt weder das Vorhandensein noch das Wegfallen der entsprechenden Anordnung.
Interessant ist in diesem Zusammenhang jedoch die TCN, die Technical Capability Notice, vom Innenministerium, über die Apple nach den Bestimmungen des Investigatory Powers‑Acts nicht öffentlich sprechen darf. Demnach gehe es eben nicht nur unter ADP gespeicherte Daten, sondern um weltweit alle in der iCloud gespeicherten Daten.
Sollte Apple den Prozess gewinnen, sollen die Ergebnisse veröffentlicht werden. Wenn nicht, werden es User nicht öffentlich erfahren. Das braucht es dann aber auch nicht mehr. Das wäre Ergebnis genug.
Jede:r überlege, was in der Cloud wie gespeichert wird...

UK sought broad access to Apple customers’ data, court filing shows | FT
Exactly as predicted, just because HMG doesn’t want to spy on Apple-using Americans anymore, it still wants to spy on Apple using Britons:
It also suggests that the Home Office is yet to modify its demand for Apple to grant access to data belonging to customers outside the UK, despite claims by Trump administration officials last week that the British government had “agreed to drop” its effort to tap American citizens’ private information.

Bloomberg: “Tulsi Gabbard’s ‘Win’ for Apple Isn’t That Simple” | Parmy Olson
The Home Office will likely drop its order under US pressure, but we won’t know for sure until Apple uses its next appearance before a judge to say its case is invalid. That would be an unfortunate outcome for a fight that should have played out publicly in court, and could have put an end to such intrusive surveillance powers for everyone else.

I don’t wanna rain on the parade but it’s entirely possible that the UK Government vs: APPLE iCloud BACKDOOR STORY IS STILL A THING
Britain has dropped its demand for the iPhone maker Apple to provide a “backdoor” that would have enabled access to the protected encrypted data of American citizens
…which does not say anything about not-backdooring British citizens.
We should watch carefully whether Apple resurrects ADP in the UK.

UK backs down in Apple privacy row, US says | BBC News
Somehow I can’t imagine the British government wanting any kind of legal precedent to be set in this matter.
Apple responded by withdrawing ADP from the UK market, and started a legal process to challenge the order. This was due to be heard at a tribunal in early 2026.
It is not yet clear whether that will continue to go ahead.
Tulsi Gabbard said in a post on X the UK had agreed to drop its instruction for the tech giant to provide a “back door” which would have “enabled access to the protected encrypted data of American citizens and encroached on our civil liberties”.
The BBC understands Apple has not yet received any formal communication from either the US or UK governments.

Reality bites the UK government’s push to undermine end-to-end encryption | Element
The UK government’s bruising Apple encounter has, inadvertently, underlined the global support for end-to-end encryption in democratic countries. It makes it quite clear that the US – home to the majority of the world’s tech firms – supports end-to-end encryption unequivocally, and will protect its US headquartered firms from other governments’ attempts to undermine encryption.

UK backing down on Apple encryption backdoor after pressure from US | Ars Technica
Never forget: parts of the NSA/FBI want this too, but not overtly. Nonetheless this is to be welcomed:
[UK Gov’t] is seeking a way out of a clash with the Trump administration over the UK’s demand that Apple provide it with access to secure customer data, two senior British officials have told the Financial Times.

Government using national security as ‘smokescreen’ in Apple encryption row | Computer Weekly
Senior Conservative MP David Davis told Computer Weekly there was “no credible case” for the government to refuse to tell Parliament how many notices it issues each year to telecoms and internet companies.
“The government is being dishonest in its use of ‘national security’ as a smokescreen to avoid telling the public how often it has ordered tech companies to hand over data or undermine encryption,” he said.

Alec’s Personal, Utterly Speculative Opinion: Why does the UK Government want a Backdoor into Apple iCloud Encryption? Answer: “Corporate & Foreign Government Espionage for Five Eyes”
In case this is not clear enough from the headline, I’ll repeat: the following is utterly personal and very speculative speculation re: why the UK Home Office are pursuing a backdoor into Apple’s iCloud product, a privacy weakness that will be local in scope but global in nature — although we can all be reassured that they pinky-promise to be nice and not abuse that privilege.
All this said: since ~1990 I have, almost non-stop, sought to promote adoption of — and prevent restriction upon — cryptography, so maybe my opinion now carries a bit of weight.
Therefore:
I believe that the purpose of the UK TCN backdoor into iCloud is primarily to enable Corporate, Government, & various other Espionage across Five Eyes
That’s it. There’s also a bit of historical baggage which the late and lamented Professor Ross Anderson used to describe along the lines of:
“…[elements within] the UK Home Office believe, and have always believed, that they have a god-given right to read all message content…”
(personal communication)
— and they’ve been trying to hold back the flood of encryption for 40 years, so why stop now? But…
- It’s certainly not about Labour vs: Conservative; the demand for a backdoor has been in the pipeline / rumoured in civil society for more than a calendar year, so it predates the Labour government by some margin.
- Maybe it is a bit, but not greatly about preventing CSAM or terrorism; CSAM can be very effectively combated by user-reporting, metadata analysis fanout plus tracking-down abusers who have installed various sketchy apps, not to mention the ongoing social campaigns to prevent grooming and abuse “at source”; and the big end-to-end-secure apps like WhatsApp and Messenger already work on this basis in a content-privacy-preserving manner
- Similarly, terrorism: back in the 1990s the UK Police (i.e. the security services) would regularly demand, e.g. from telcos like Vodaphone, lists of calls to-or-from a watchlist of certain (i.e. IRA) phone numbers for anti-terrorism purposes
- So if today GCHQ don’t already demand/obtain lists of people who have installed niche, less-safety-focused communications apps on a similar basis, and then cross-correlate them against cookie-tracking and other semi-public surveillance technologies, I will be very surprised — because that’s how and where the abuse really happens, and how it is best combated.
- So: abusers and terrorists are already both well-surveilled by other means, and Apple iCloud seems a niche means to pursue them.
- But who would a backdoor in iCloud really help target?
Answer: Corporations & Governments using MDM.
Rationale
ADP is both a nerd technology, and a niche technology; it’s not the default. It might provide a protective blanket for content generated and shared by a bunch of terrorists or abusers who are simultaneously smart enough to enable it, but yet stupid enough to open themselves to seriously well-resourced tracking and analysis of their metadata footprint.
But you know who will really be making major, mass use of ADP?
Answer: big corporations and governments which switch it on for hundreds, perhaps even many thousands of iPhones at a time, by means of Mobile Device Management (MDM).
Brazilian mining companies that compete with Canada and the USA, the UK spying on Belgian Telcos, there are legion reasons for spying on corporates around the world, and as GCHQ puts it:
https://www.gchq.gov.uk/information/investigatory-powers-act
These grounds are that interception is necessary:
- In the interests of national security; or
- In the interests of the economic well-being of the UK; or
- In support of the prevention or detection of serious crime
IPA also requires safeguards to be in place to limit the use of intercepted material and related communications data.
The act itself constrains those powers:
A targeted interception warrant or targeted examination warrant is necessary on grounds falling within this section if … in the interests of the economic well-being of the United Kingdom so far as those interests are also relevant to the interests of national security
But continues…
A warrant may be considered necessary … only if the information which it is considered necessary to obtain is information relating to the acts or intentions of persons outside the British Islands.
…which (“may?”) does not strike me as a terribly onerous nor an insurmountable barrier to operation, especially if this is all hush-hush top-secret.
tl;dr
- There is a long history of economic espionage of corporations & foreign governments
- FVEY (pre-Trump?) pursue and share corporate/economic espionage
- Once one FVEY country obtains access to a resource, all of them have it, bidirectionally
- Popular adoption of ADP at-scale is most likely via use of MDM, which is mostly an enterprise/institutional tool
- To understand who is being surveilled, look at who most uses the technology
I can’t see any incremental benefit to the pursuit of abusers and terrorists to be worth the necessary expenditure of political capital necessary to obtain a backdoor into Apple iCloud.
But: I can totally see an “economic well-being” cost/benefit argument.
