The smartphone is a terrible platform. Something like this could never happen on the PC, where you can install any encryption and backup software that you want.

While Apple did the right thing by refusing to give the UK government a backdoor, they are responsible for getting users in this situation in the first place.

I'm not familiar with the iPhone and maybe there is already an alternative to iCloud ADP, although that would make this whole situation completely nonsensical.
