    Cannot see how this can be enforced under international law. Otherwise it sets a dangerous precedent

    Hello TheCivvie!

    Cannot see how this can be enforced under international law. Otherwise it sets a dangerous precedent

    What about leveraging the international legal arm associated
    with the "criminal warning" + copyright notice that is/was
    quite prominent on DVDs and VHS tapes?

    This is different as the UK governemnt wants to see data that isn't on a phone that has been in the UK. Would you be happy if they looked at your data
