And even then, the declaration you quote (made in a US Court case referring to the FBI) was made two years before Apple gave the keys over to China.
Apple has deleted VPN apps from the Chinese store at the request of the Chinese government. They also added a clause to their TOS that allows the state-owned data company to access all user data. When they rolled this out and gave the keys to China, they only gave their users the option to delete their account, not opt out.
I'm sorry to be the one to have to break this to you but Apple is acquiescing with the Chinese government surveillance demands.
- IBM 8y ago>was made two years before Apple gave the keys over to China. I was wondering why you kept making these bad faith assertions but I see now that you're a Google employee. That explains it. I'm sorry that your employer can't operate in China as Apple does. Apple's "special treatment" in China comes from the fact that millions of people are employed assembling their products. Google's going to have to open up a lot more AI labs to get close [1].
