Apple: what we do and don’t share with the government

Apple is the latest company to disclose to its customers how much data it has shared this year with the government. The company says it does not allow the government access to its servers but does comply with specific requests on a case-by-case basis. So far this year, Apple says between 9,000 and 10,000 devices and/or accounts have been impacted by these requests. The company says it does not share map or location data, because it does not store this information in “identifiable form.”
