We won't sell. We won't give away. We will comply with our requirements under UK law (which is neither selling nor giving away).

You can be compelled to give your users data to government agents. You can even be compelled to background encryption algorithms to make this easier.

To say that's not "giving" seems like semantics.

But we'll add a "within the realms of what is possible under UK law" section, I guess.

What about the Snooper Charter? The government counts.
