We have partnered with TechFreedom and seven other civil society organizations to send two open letters addressing secret UK government orders pressuring Apple to break encryption on users’ cloud storage worldwide.
Our letter to the UK Home Office warns that undermining encryption—a vital safeguard for free expression—violates the European Convention on Human Rights. Meanwhile, our letter to U.S. officials highlights the threats to Americans’ constitutional rights and urges them to protect the public’s ability to share information freely without government oversight.
