Home Office wants to be able to access data secured by Apple 's Advanced Data Protection (ADP) system.

Apple has no such capability - such data can only be accessed by the user.

The government's request prompted fierce criticism from privacy campaigners and some US politicians.

In February , Apple pulled ADP from the UK and launched legal proceedings against the government.
