 The UK government is looking to update its 2016 Investigatory Powers Act. The UK Home Office can demand technology companies disable security features before shipping them to consumers. Apple has said these provisions could be used to force a company like Apple that would never build a backdoor to publicly withdraw critical security features from the UK market. Will Apple just take its privacy ball and go home? The UK government wants to say but will catch rapist murderers and thieves if Apple does this. It is up to the citizenry of the UK and I think I know which way they're going to go to make the choice. Would you rather I message in FaceTime or would you rather the government's promise that there will be better security? And considering the fact that Apple makes more money and is probably more powerful than the UK government, I think that citizens in the UK will probably want their services more than they will want that promise for better public safety.
