Britain has dropped its demand for the iPhone maker Apple to provide a "backdoor" that would have enabled access to the protected encrypted data of American citizens, U.S. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said.

The United Kingdom will no longer force Apple to provide backdoor access to secure user data protected by the company’s iCloud encryption service, according to US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

The government of the UK has agreed to stop demanding Apple provide backdoor access to user data, according to the U.S. Director of Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard.

UK officials are no longer compelling Apple to create backdoor access to its users' data, according to US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

After a report last month claimed the Trump administration was pressuring the UK to drop its push for access to iCloud data, DNI Tulsi Gabbard says the UK has backed down.

Apple Inc. will no longer be forced to provide a so-called backdoor to American users’ data to the UK government, US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said Monday in a post on X.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said the British government order “would have enabled access to the protected encrypted data of American citizens.”

The UK has dropped its demand that Apple create a backdoor for government security officials to access encrypted data, according to US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

The US director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, announced on social media late Monday evening that Apple will not be required to provide an encryption backdoor in the UK, easing concerns about weakened privacy and security safeguards.

The UK government has backed down on a controversial demand for Apple to build a “back door” into its technology to access private user data following pressure from the Trump administration.
