Apple’s concerns that the governments from accessing users’ protected data goes beyond the case in recent weeks has seen the company as opposed to the FBI for the iPhone unlocking of the San Bernardino killer. The house of Cupertino would in fact working on six projects to create home-cloud infrastructure, servers and network equipment in order to avoid the risk of espionage. It is as reported by the website The Informer citing people familiar with the facts.

At least in part, it reads, Apple’s efforts to build its servers are motivated by the desire to make them safe. “Apple has long been suspected that the servers ranked to traditional suppliers were intercepted along the shipment and handled with the addition of electronic components (from unknown chip and firmware) to make the server vulnerable to infiltration.” “At some point – continued The Informer – Apple has also put some people to photograph the motherboard and write down each chip functions”, to be sure it had not been manipulated.

Such fears do not are unfounded: with the explosion of Datagate scandal, in 2013 the world learned that the NSA, the US security agency intercepted shipments of electronic equipment of the persons kept under control, modifying them for espionage tools.
