    I think the headline is framing this wrong. Apple is not threatening to kill these services.

    Apple is refusing to break their services just to accommodate broken, stupid laws written by a broken, stupid parliament.

      Careful there, expressing an honest take about an Apple decision instead of trying to spin it like it’s evil is a good way to piss a bunch of people off.

        Considering Apple has no problem bending over backwards for dictatorships like China. Do you think they’ll do anything other than to server their finances?

        People regurgitating company PR bullshit is fucking cringe.

        this “careful, you might…” cliché makes you seem like you spend too much time online. Add something constructive to the discussion, rather than virtue signaling.

        No company is looking after your best interests, except when it aligns with their financial interests. You take that out, they’ll sell you out to the highest bidder.

          My brother in Christ, I don’t know who it was that hurt you but it wasn’t me. Being this emotionally invested in disliking a company is definitely not good for your mental health. Nobody here is even remotely suggesting that any company cares for anything other that maximizing profits. That doesn’t mean that there are no companies that maximize their profits by having a reputation for privacy and security.

          If you don’t think my comment was valuable, downvote it and move on. Nobody wants to hear someone cry about how mean the big bad computer company is.
