Privacy Online | Apple and Meta Shared Data with Hackers

In response to the faked "emergency data demands," Apple and Meta gave basic subscriber facts, such as a customer's address, phone number, and IP address, in mid-2021. According to the persons, such demands are usually only granted with a search warrant or subpoena signed by a court. The emergency demands, on the other hand, do not require a court order.

The same hackers sent a bogus legal request to Snap Inc., but it's unclear whether the firm responded with data. It's also unclear how many times the companies released information in response to fictitious court requests.

Cybersecurity experts believe that some of the hackers who sent the bogus requests are youngsters from the United Kingdom and the United States. According to the persons, one of the minors is also suspected of being the brains behind the cybercrime group Lapsus$, which has attacked Microsoft Corp., Samsung Electronics Co., and Nvidia Corp., among others. Seven people were recently arrested by City of London Police in connection with an investigation into the Lapsus$ hacking gang; the investigation is still ongoing.

Bloomberg News was directed to a portion of Apple's law enforcement standards by an Apple representative.

According to the Apple rules, a supervisor for the government or a law enforcement official who submitted the request "may be called and asked to confirm to Apple that the emergency request was valid."
