Then where's the call to ban apple products? They famously defied the FBI's call for a backdoor during a terrorist investigation after all. Apple's actions have proven themselves to be more resistant to regulatory actions than frickin tiktok which actually proposed letting an American company host and oversee tiktok's infrastructure and data collection for the USA as a solution to such concerns.
