Pussies.

Steve Jobs would have never agreed to this. Tim Cook should rename himself to Tim Cuck.

Hello slippery slope. I smell trust being flushed…. https://m.primal.net/PFhr.jpg

UK caved to authoritarianism

The cloud is just someone else’s computer

Centralization is weak… again

I’m gonna go get an android today

Ooof

All in a desperate attempt to stop "far right thugs" from being critical of the government.

“Existing users' access will be disabled at a later date.” How are they gonna do this? If there’s no back door, they can’t decrypt my data, right? Will they just delete my files or cut me off if I don’t provide the key? The creep of authoritarianism knows no bounds.

I dunno why I am so annoyed by this, but no: caving would have been compromising encryption with a backdoor. They went with the only other option available to them, which was to pull encryption altogether.

Womp wah

This is fucken disappointing on Apple. Im gonna have to reconsider my decision going forward with any Apple products and services

UK is a dystopia

I’m assuming passwords and keychain are still encrypted in the iCloud?

Will this be enough for the "freedom lovers" to get out of that shit ecosystem? Time will tell.

Did they give them a back door?

Incredibly disappointing.

its unfortunate that non of the large companies want to shake status quo. although if they did someone could get assassinated.

How did Apple Cave? Agency said create a back door and they didn’t. They went to court and as a final option they simply removed the feature. Now everyone’s data in UK will have standard encryption for which the keys will be shared with law enforcement. Better than a back door to end to end encr...

It’s probably good idea to catch all that gang raped in the UK

UK caved. When will you rise against this tyranny?

Yikes

Boooo
