I don't think Korea or Australia have the power to force Apple to build backdoors into their products. Maybe they'd get to use the US one if they asked nicely.

- __d 4y agoAustralian law requires that Apple enable a "backdoor" when issued a Technical Capability Notice. I don't know one has been issued. But Apple still sells devices in Australia, so I'm assuming it has complied when it was asked. See https://www.techtarget.com/searchsecurity/definition/Australian-Assistance-and-Access-Bill https://www.techtarget.com/searchsecurity/definition/Austral... for an overview.
