The proposal would require companies to provide code for review by government-designated labs, ostensibly to find security flaws. For Apple but this is complete nonsense. Source codes iOS is one of the most sensitive things Apple has, and making them available would in itself constitute a security risk. Moreover, a similar requirement does not exist anywhere in the EU, the USA or other technologically advanced regionsonech. Apple has been clear on this point for a long time. After all, if he refused to create backdoors into encryption for governments around the world, it's hard to imagine that he would now voluntarily open up the entire iOS for India to see. And it makes sense. The more people have access to the code, the easier it is to find weaknesses.

The whole situation fits into a longer series of Indian attempts to push tech companies to the wall. Whether it was pre-installed government apps or checking updates, each time it turned out that Apple is willing to give in only very limitedly or not at all. The result is quite clear now. India can push, threaten regulations and talk about national security, but the source codes iOS z AppThis is not a question of compromise, but of principle. And you Apple changes only very rarely.

With a bit of exaggeration, it can be said that this is just a rather poor attempt on its part at something that it has already lost.
I understand correctly that if they could get to something like that, they would be able to create their own iOS ? And so you produce not only Fake iPhone but straight Fake iPhone even with fake iOS ?
Theoretically yes :)
