UK government demands access to Apple users' encrypted data
www.bbc.co.ukThe Home Office served the notice to the tech giant under the Investigatory Powers Act.
UK government is trying to get into iCloud end-to-end encryption. (Again?)
Makes me think about email servers too. Most of my private information is in emails, and not only I use a service where the host machines access the email, so do almost everyone I email to/from.

For people recommending Tuta or Proton.
If only one party uses those services one would have to trust Tuta/Proton to not save a copy of an incoming unencrypted mail. If a government wants access, they have to obey or shut down. Asking the unencrypted email provider from the other party is the obvious other way to access your data.
Only open source E2E for both parties is is trustworthy
