There is no backdoor in Apple’s encryption. That’s the reason the US and UK governments have prosecuted Apple repeatedly. They can obtain iCloud data with a warrant, but are repeatedly pressing for real-time surveillance. The UK banned encryption without a backdoor, so Apple turned off encryption rather than compromising their standard.
There ~~are~~ exist ~~many, many~~ backdoors. Dont be naïve
Source?
Snowden, historical documents about CIA, info from Chinese and Russian intelligence
I didn't think any of that was backdoors. That was the government snooping on unencrypted communications.
