Would that be admissible in court?

Does Apple just have carte blanche access to any data they have?

I mean, I guess so, there’s probably some EULA I haven’t read.

But I’d think their privacy stances would let you sue them if they snooped through your iCloud backups.

Unless it was a company phone in which case their employees probably have a separate EULA like most corporate devices.

Just like you hopefully wouldn’t stream a torrent over your corporate VPN.

In a case like this, they would just request the information through a legal procedural called "discovery" in which a party is required to turn over requested information relevant to a legal matter to the opposing party.

In short, it doesn't matter if they don't have EULA or technical access to the data.
