They, along with news organisations - including the BBC - made legal representations for the case to be heard in public. "This is bigger than the UK and Apple," said Jim Killock, executive director of Open [Rights Group. 'The Court's judgment will have implications for the privacy and security of millions of | [people around the world. ‘The Open Rights Group campaigned alongside Big Brother Watch and Index on Censorship against the proposal to hold the hearing in secret. Big Brother Watch interim director Rebecca Vincent says the judgement is "effectively chipping away at the pervasive climate of secrecy surrounding the Investigatory Powers Tribunal's consideration of the Apple case". "The Home Office's order to break encryption represents a massive attack on the privacy rights of millions of British Apple users, which is a matter of significant public interest and must not be considered behind closed doors," she adds. Apple declined to comment.

I love your service. It is a real lifesaver. I struggle to pay the $10 a month as a poor Franciscan, but sadly in the USA, I need such a service. Keep up the good work!
