The deep state (UK branch) would rather have this as the main news than the upcoming release of Epstein list

This is actually the best outcome. While it seems Apple is cowering to authorities, they’re actually ceding power to the people. All it takes is citizens holding their government accountable for their draconian policies and Apple can revert to the ethical norm. Expecting Apple to unshackle the people from the overreach of the government is absurd if the people aren’t willing to stand up for their own privacy.

This isn't a sincere attempt to start discussion, it's just spam. This is nostr, not censorship supporter land

The reason why I asked is because I haven't found a single source that isn't paywalled about this information. It feels like a divide and conquer psyop.

How about this outcome. Apple messages everybody: Dear Britfags, Until you protest your way out of this, iOS is not good for evading thought police for meme crimes anymore. Use Graphene, use Signal, use Tor. Use sovereign solutions, use diverse solutions. Use Wormhole, use Keet. Process data locally, uncle-jim storage. Encrypt data yourself, use wireguard, use Nostr. Cyberspace is not a geography. Wake up! Encryption is resistance, Resist! Some Real Name at Apple #apple #encryption #resistance #wakeup #cypherpunks #ios #adp #uk #thoughtcrime

As hilarious as that would be, I would say it’s the responsibility of notable Brits to vocalize these problems. Again, expecting Apple to be heroic and diminish profitability would be naive.

It's what I meant. In a hypothetical message above I meant signaling like this: "take responsibility, we are not going to play 5D chess for you to guess if we bowed dow or resisted, nor we can't do things for you, there are ways out of this"

The government of Great Britain is now the enemy of its own people (and has been for nearly a century; it's just more obvious now). It is long past time for it to be totally replaced.
