Can you provide documentation demonstrating this requirement in the United States? It is widely understood that no such requirement exists.
There's no need to compromise with any requirement, this was entirely voluntary on Apple's part. That's why people were upset.

Oh the irony.
- rzimmerman 2y agoShould have said "potential legal requirement". There was a persistent threat of blocking the use of E2E encryption for this exact reason.
