Signal would “walk” too. I hope they don’t pass this law
Yes, but Apple and Meta have many more users and much more clout. As much as I don’t like them, these public statements of intent are needed if this is to be defeated.
This is never going to pass. It’s got so many hurdles to jump at this point and similar bills have never gotten any traction. There’s nobody screaming for this and it’s just been dreamt up by old Tories who don’t understand technology. I think I read it’s just been opened up for eight weeks of consultation and on day one somebody will explain to them that child abusers don’t use messaging systems that can be cracked by the government and they’ll find a way around it. No matter what they do they’ll never stop people just VPNing out if the country and away from these laws.
I’m deeply annoyed when somebody calls me on FaceTime. Go away! I can just about bring myself to answering a call from people in my contacts, sometimes. Or perhaps I’m just turning into a recluse.
Should be possible to disable FaceTime in your settings.

People feel the need to have them on packed rush hour trains too. Why?
It’s in Apple’s best interest to show how good their encryption is. One must remember that, in these chest puffing cases.
