    How things change.

    Once upon a time, Apple stood up to the FBI’s demands. Now they’re caving to an implication in an authoritarian foreign country.

      Apple pretended to stand up to them a couple times in high-profile cases for optics. They were helping them all along.

          Even if true, I think I prefer when Apple was normalizing standing up to surveillance, instead of being the first to endorse it.

            Yeah, I agree. I just wanted to call them out because FUD has never once helped the privacy community, and I’m tired of people strawmanning big tech and making the comm look bad.
