“There have been many reports that Apple is working with the Chinese Communist Party and the Russian regime to move data centers (processing) so that the governments of these (countries) can organize large-scale surveillance,” he said.
Barr claims that Apple has disabled a number of options, which allowed it to "organize censorship and suppression."
He emphasized that after complicity with "authoritarian regimes" Apple has no excuses to refuse to work with the governments of those countries "where there is a rule of law that respects privacy and civil liberties."
A press conference by William Barr was dedicated to investigating an armed attack at a Florida air base. The Attorney General complained that the special services took 4 months to crack the criminal’s smartphone, as Apple refused to help in this.
