Presumably this applies to the iPhones owned by UK government ministers, civil servants, personal devices of military personnel, UK businesses, etc.
As a brit, I find that my government's stupidity is almost its only reliable attribute.
Presumably not, politicians have a way of excepting themselves in these types of laws. It's almost as if they understand the need for privacy, they just fail to apply that understanding to any scenarios beyond their own.
I meant that Apple's decision to withdraw ADP applies to them, not the Investigatory Powers Act. Or are you saying that Apple will give them a free exemption?
"Presumably not"
Rubbish. Give me one example? They will have to abide as well.
Not a UK example, but Chat Control (2.0) explicitly exempts various politicians and government officials from being spied on.
