Government says DOJ subpoenaed Apple without authorization
DOJ demands for message and call data from Apple during the Trump administration, failed to obtain authorization, says the Office of the Inspector General in the current Biden administration.
It was previously revealed in 2021 that the Department of Justice under President Trump subpoenaed Apple for data concerning at least two House Democrats, their aides and families, in an investigation into alleged leaking of information. Now a report from the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) says the DOJ's demands were issued without the required legal authorization. It also reveals that the scope of the demands was wider than previously known, with the DOJ issuing 40 non-disclosure orders (NDOs) to the two companies.
