UK Online Safety Act: Why will Apple not share encrypted data?

0:00
The government has had to back down on
0:02
plans to force Apple to share encrypted
0:04
user data via a backdoor. Here is
0:07
everything you need to know in under 60
0:09
seconds. So, the order was initially to
0:12
enforce the government's investigatory
0:14
powers act. But what the government sees
0:16
as powers to make the internet safer,
0:19
key figures in the Trump administration
0:21
view as an attempt to put curbs on
0:23
freedom of speech. It looks like the
0:25
vice president JD Vance personally
0:27
intervened from his holiday in the
0:29
Cotswwells to broker the exemption for
0:31
Apple. It's worth bearing in mind the
0:33
current market value of Apple currently
0:36
stands at 3.43 trillion pounds. That is
0:40
not far behind the entire UK GDP of 3.64
0:44
trillion. And this is not the first time
0:46
that the Labor government has clashed
0:48
with Vance over efforts to police the
0:51
internet. In February, at what was
0:53
otherwise a pretty successful and
0:55
friendly meeting with President Trump at
0:57
the White House, Vance warned of
0:59
infringements on free speech in relation
1:02
to the government's online safety act,
1:04
which came in in July. Star denied that
1:07
this was the government's intention. He
1:08
said that he was very proud of our
1:10
history on free speech, but now that
1:13
reputation is being called into
1:15
question. For everything you need to
