Apple launched a legal challenge at the IPT the following month.The litigation is ongoing. The Home Office is yet to file a defence, according to the IPT\u2019s ruling on Monday. The full details and circumstances of the notice are still unknown.The Home Office had asked the tribunal to keep secret the details of the case, including the names of the parties, arguing that revealing the information would be \u201cdamaging to national security\u201d.Apple had opposed the secrecy request, the ruling on Monday by Judges Lord Justice Singh and Mr Justice Johnson showed.Apple declined to comment on the ruling but referred back to a previous statement: \u201cAs we have said many times before, we have never built a back door or master key to any of our products or services and we never will.\u201dThe company earlier this year pulled its iCloud Advanced Data Protection system from the UK as a result of the Home Office\u2019s access request.UK media organisations, including the FT, and campaign groups Liberty, Privacy International and Big Brother Watch made submissions to the IPT that the case should not be heard in private.Rebecca Vincent, interim director of campaign group Big Brother Watch, said on Monday: \u201cThe Home Office\u2019s order to break encryption represents a massive attack on the privacy rights of millions of British Apple users, which is a matter of significant public interest and must not be considered behind closed doors.\u201cWe will keep campaigning to protect privacy rights in the face of these and other threats to encryption \u2014 as once it is broken for anyone, it is broken for everyone.\u201dThe Home Office did not immediately respond to request for comment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
