“We are gravely disappointed that the protections provided by ADP will not be available to our customers in the UK given the continuing rise of data breaches and other threats to customer privacy,” Apple said. “Enhancing the security of cloud storage with end-to-end encryption is more urgent than ever before.”<\/p>\n

For UK Apple users, some data can still be encrypted. iCloud Keychain and Health, iMessage, and FaceTime will remain end-to-end encrypted by default. But other iCloud services will not be encrypted, effective immediately, including iCloud Backup, iCloud Drive, Photos, Notes, Reminders, Safari Bookmarks, Siri Shortcuts, Voice memos, Wallet passes, and Freeform.<\/p>\n

In the future, Apple hopes to restore data protections in the UK, but the company refuses to ever build a backdoor for government officials.<\/p>\n

“Apple remains committed to offering our users the highest level of security for their personal data and are hopeful that we will be able to do so in the future in the United Kingdom,” Apple said. “As we have said many times before, we have never built a backdoor or master key to any of our products or services, and we never will.”<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
