Whenever I talk to people about abusive big tech, people ask me why I *do* trust
Apple (more than the others); this is why.
Rather than backdoor their security, they'd rather just disable it completely for people in countries that don't allow it. IMO, that's the right decision on their part, though utterly stupid on the part of our government, as ever.
@Floppy Wishing a very happy Friday afternoon crisis to everyone who thought asking for the backdoor was a good idea.
@agvbergin what's the opposite of #hugops?
@Floppy it is however hilarious that JD Vance is saying how worrying it is when he's part of a government who will be wanting similar backdoors for their own nefarious purposes.
@mathw one rule of politicians, they're all always up in arms when it's *other* people doing the things.
@Floppy how dare those other people try to influence world events that's our job!
@Floppy I agree. And our govt is completely misguided - and basically every tech expert with a brain has told them that.
