Don't you know anything, Brits? Apple only strips security features for the Chinese government, you fools!

Haha yeah too right. UK government isn't authoritarian enough for apple to listen to

it has more to do with where their factories are located. Hard to negotiate with the people who control the very land and people you utilize to build your hardware

Not saying that justifies it, just think we should be accurate with our outrage

They could have factories in China and not sell phones there. There are also other places to build factories. They just might have to trim back their 42% profit margin. It's still a willingness to abandon principles for a price, isn't it?
