UK government demands Apple backdoor to encrypted cloud data: Report | TechCrunch

Apple is likely to stop providing its encrypted cloud service to U.K. users

I currently use Telegram for my friends and family, but have reluctantly come to the conclusion that the UK Government is either reaching agreement for backdoors with messaging services, or is trying its hardest to.

I’m also on Element/Matrix. Before I try to get my contacts to join me on there, should I be aware of any privacy issues or is that a good place to head?

    or every one of them uses Signal exclusively on iOS, your conversations are still tied to Google

    Just because someone else uses Google on the other end does not make it dependent on Google on your end.

    you are being very rude.

    I’m being rude because you’re spreading FUD and misinformation and actively making people unsafe. If you have evidence to prove that Signal has access to all of that information, feel free to share with the class. Otherwise, shut it.

    If Signal had access to any of that information they would have been legally compelled to provide it when they were served with warrants but they did not, which proves that you’re incorrect.
