      Those proposals will never be made law and acted upon.

      It's infeasible nonsense to pander to the Daily Mail reading curtain-twitchers. They've had 13 years to try and do this. If they wanted to (and indeed if it was in any way possible), they'd have done it already.

      It'll be just "Vote for us and we'll make your children safe from nonces and muzzies!" until the end of time.

        My opinion is that the US already has access to Apple devices data. If we consider this to be true, what the UK is trying to do it's to match a possible enemy capabilities. Is this a valid point though? This woudn't make this action less wrong, I must to be clear, but it would be more undestandable.
