God I fucking hate our government
Sad how in 2025 this applies to pretty much every country
Politicians still don’t know how E2E encryption works (and/or they don’t care)
Oh, I'm pretty sure they fully understand how it works.
They simply expect tech to roll over when commanded, and in this case, it does indeed look like Apple is going to do exactly that.
In response to the order, Apple is expected to simply stop offering Advanced Data Protection in the UK. This wouldn’t meet the UK’s demand for access to files shared by global users, however.
~~"EU orders Apple to let anything in to the AppStore"~~
~~Androiders: Yeah! Open that shit up! Stupid Apple!~~
~~"EU orders encryption back door"~~
~~Androiders: . . . Not like that!~~
UK isn't part of the European Union.
~~Are you mentally challenged?~~
Edit: this was harsh and you don't seem like a bot, apologies to you.
