Our (I'm British) government is filled with authoritarian a holes who want to control its citizens' lives, and be able to immediately catch and punish any wrongthink. I'm not surprised they're doing this, I'm just extremely disgusted, disappointed and angry.

Many people critics "chinese" phones for their "alleged" connection with ccp, but these same people doesn't say anything about blatant privacy fringing by western police state? Such hypocrisy...
I hope Apple doesn't give in to government pressure. They need to defend their user against the political scumbags who pretending to do the good deeds for their people...
