          Don't believe me?? I don't know how technically you are, but you can leave your phone on with internet connection (WiFi or data) overnight while you're sleeping and the next day. You can check your data transmission details. You'll be surprised knowing where all the data gone to. Here a kicker, some of the data when to a company that tie to Chinese government.

          Hence why both my phone (iPhone and Android phone) always internet connection off when I'm sleeping. Only basic cellular call and SMS can reach me.

              Of course their demands are absurd, but the audacity tho, to ask for something like that

                I guess it would depend if they would be willing to take the financial hit and grow their markets elswhere to offset the loss of the UK market.

                  This is great news for identity thieves.... Now they can get all your personal information directly from the source. Thanks, UK government

                              Surely, anyone actually really needing the secrecy are not using encryption to which anyoneelse but they themself have the decryption key. Meaning you keep the unlock key yourself and send the lock key to the sender all without use of Apple, Facebook, signal, telegram, etc.

                                Anonymous, 07 Feb 2025Apple, just leave EU. Then only they will understand. The UK is not a part of the EU.

                                  I am a UK citizen and it is indeed becoming more Orwellian by the day.

                                    And remember that this is the same UK that have jailed their own citizens over “hate speech.” They are speedrunning to become China 2.0.

But at least that would affect Chinese users, not everybody else outside China.

                                        And they talk about China which didn't even request such thing from Apple!

                                        Now I see Huawei's HarmonyOS is a better for security because it's less popular for hackers to target, especially since it's not compatible with android APK or IOS files. If China spy on this OS you're worried about ONE country rather than USA's CIA, NSA, FBI, Meta, Google, UK intelligence, Isra's Mossad (remember Pegasus!)
