How can a government have this right?

How can a government have the right to order a company to do work for them? I can understand if it were the case that Apple had this feature and version of iOS ready and working and the government were demanding access to that ready made tool, but if it doesn't exist, how can they be forced to do work for them?

Surely that on its own would be a form of slavery?
