Apple can be bad at privacy and not want to give governments a back door into their encryption. The two are not mutually exclusive.

I swear why do we have to explain every 5 years to governments that encryption can't have backdoors and be usable encryption?

Got to love all the pretense they claim as the reasons they want this. Oh it’s so we can scan for indications of child abuse. No it’s fucking not, it’s so you can spy on your own citizens. The U.S.A. uses terrorism as an excuse for every imaginable violation of our rights and the UK now wants Apple to let them bypass security with a flip of a switch - without any kind of approval or court order.
We truly are seeing all the sci-fi dystopian society tropes come to life one day at a time, one government overstep at a time.

I'd love to see Apple make a special UK iphone with no port (magsafe only), no imessage and no facetime. With a card inside that says, designed in California, as Legislated in the UK.
