Isn’t point 2 a consequence of the law that they have to follow? Don’t know about rest of the world but I think in EU they are forced to disclose your personal information to the government if asked to do so. This is also in their privacy policy.

I think this is definitely the case.

And as iCloud is a global service they really have to cater for the lowest common denominator.

Then they could offer that feature just in those jurisdictions.
