The "back door" that allowed the government to gain access to the call logs and text messages of iPhone users no longer exists.

Apple has found the solution to being forced to hand over iPhone user data to the government and law enforcement: make it impossible.

Amid concerns of data privacy after the revelations from NSA leaker Edward Snowden, tech companies including Yahoo, Google, Apple, Facebook and Microsoft have come under fire for handing over data under the table for surveillance.

Apple will no longer be a part of this, the company announced Wednesday. In its latest software update, the company is prevented from accessing any information about users that may be requested by authorities. A feature that won't change even if a search warrant is issued.
