According to a letter from Trump’s Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, the UK may have broken a bilateral agreement by secretly demanding that Apple build a global backdoor into iCloud. Gabbard expressed concern over the implications of such a demand on Americans' privacy and civil liberties. The UK's Investigatory Powers Act of 2016 allows for gag orders, which could prevent companies from disclosing such demands. Gabbard is working with multiple agencies to understand the legal implications and ensure that any actions taken by the UK government are consistent with the CLOUD Act and other applicable laws.
