...edited but kept a note, it was bugging me.

I remember that case, yeah apple does some good here. I remember 404media running a story about iphones rebooting preventing unlock by police recently( 1 and 2 ). I guess you/they really don't want any present established for that.

yea, its a blow to uk user's privacy & security but not caving. Caving would be implimenting a backdoor. Title was a bit of an annoyed initial reaction, sorry there... maybe best to improve it, i'm not sure?

yeah I admit 'apple caved' was kinda just a gut reaction 'apple bad - encrypted backup good'.

If they fully caved we likely wouldn't have known about it, they'd have just put in a backdoor and given themselves and/or the uk encryption keys. Denying encrypted backups because of this is probably best.

You could argue apple does have the resources for a a legal battle, but you also can't really expect them to do that. They're not liberty or big brother watch. I doubt that would go well in domestic courts anyway, after that, the ECHR could be sympathetic on proportionallity & art.8 grounds but its a lot of effort.

maybe I should edit the title?

looks like you have your Halloween decorations sorted

'unborn human' sounds like some variant on undead

very cute, I wonder how easy saluting is to teach a cat. moral boosting fluff blob

basic media literacy is really needed, hopefully it doesn't come with any political bias built in
