I’d love to know how this would work from a technical perspective, say on an iPhone. I can’t imagine apple implementing that sort of functionality for them
Technically it is easy since they write the OS from the ground up. I wrote such a module myself as part of a low level coding class for my class project (in Linux ) and I’m not even that great at this stuff. They are pros. They have no limits to what data they can collect from your phone. The only impediment is bad publicity, but have a government demand it is great cover for implementing it.
None of that matters apple can override any of that. The only think you can do to prevent it is not have it on you or pull the battery or put it in a faraday cage

Think of an app that has permissions for your gps and camera
Then imagine that a high court judge demands that the app provider gives access through that
I quit the app. Disable camera access. Etc.
