Matthew Green at Lawfare has an interesting analysis of Apple’s responsibilities (or lack thereof) to the government in terms of letting law enforcement access secure communications:
Apple does not provide the encryption keys for iMessage, thus there is no current legal obligation for Apple to redesign the system to provide law enforcement access. In fact, it’s exactly these explicit limitations of CALEA that apparently have been driving law enforcement to push for new legislation (whoch has in the past been referred to as “CALEA II”). That effort has not yet born fruit, despite a number of high-profile speeches.
