Apple is facing renewed scrutiny in Washington over its compliance with secret Trump-era subpoenas for user data on more than 100 users including US legislators, highlighting the bind tech companies find themselves in when obliged to satisfy law enforcement demands.
Technology companies are already facing criticism for their economic power, privacy policies and role in public discourse. With this episode, policymakers will turn their attention to risks involved with the sheer amount of user data tech companies divulge when served with routine subpoenas, according to privacy experts.
Apple said Friday that it did not know at the time that the list of about 100 customers in the subpoenas included the legislators and said that it provided metadata and subscriber information, but not the content of e-mails or pictures. “It certainly was distressing to see that among some tech policies they had a different policy with respect to their corporate clients than they do to average citizens or even members of the Congress,” said Schiff. “We intend to learn more about the tech practices.”
