The Beijing News is reporting today that Apple's Tim Cook has agreed to security inspections of his company's products by Chinese government officials. According to MacRumors, the inspections will concentrate on identifying back doors that would allow third-party access to stored data.
China is an important market for Apple, and this agreement was likely put in place when Tim Cook and the director of China's State Internet Information Office, Lu Wei, met in 2014.
Meanwhile, Apple is celebrating the opening of its first store in Hangzhou, China in grand style.
