UK MPs have joined the chorus of voices wanting the Apple case to be held in public.

"If the Home Office wants to have effectively unfettered access to the private data of the (innocent) general public, they should explain their case in front of the public."

🗣️ David Davis MP.

"People deserve to know what's happening to their private personal information."

🗣️ Victoria Collins MP.

Bipartisan US Congress Members want the secrecy around the UK's encryption-breaking order to be lifted.

"It is imperative that the UK's technical demands of Apple - and of any other US companies - be subjected to robust, public analysis and debate."

“Secret court hearings featuring intelligence agencies and a handful of individuals approved by them do not enable robust challenges on highly technical matters.”

The message is clear across the political divide: let's hear it!

The UK government should argue in open court why they want to make us less secure by ordering a backdoor into Apple encryption.

A secret Tribunal would be an affront to the privacy and security issues at stake. It must be held in public.

đź“Ł Break the silence: Save encryption!

The UK government wants to be able to access anything, anywhere, any time — from your pics to your docs.

It begins with Apple. Other services will be next. That's why we must take a stand NOW!
