I've been wondering. What would happen if Tim Cook personally 'leaked' the notice on twitter?

How would the UK government reasonably sanction Apple?

Force cell carriers to block imei of apple handsets

That surely wouldn’t sit well with the public?

I'm fairly certain this would impact a large part of the government itself.

I can imagine most CEOs pausing before picking a fight with the intelligence services.
