According to a group of hackers in India, Apple along with RIM and Nokia, could be giving backdoor data access to their government. In exchange for being allowed to offer their products and services, they have allegedly given them access to cellular communications. The agreement appears to be called RINOA (Rim, Nokia, Apple).
Several documents have been found referring to RINOA as how information was gathered from some of these government bodies. I know India is a large country but I'm not quite sure what is more damaging – not having a presence there at all or betraying your customers' trust by allowing the local government to access data without your knowledge.
