This is in response to Apple. They're removing encryption from iCloud in the UK, *because* the UK is demanding a backdoor to everyone's encrypted information. They're not roaching out: they're taking a hard line on what encryption is fundamentally, and what cannot happen with it.

Signal is the least of our worries, Apple are removing encryption from iCloud in the UK. They don’t have the balls to withdraw from the market though.

Encryption must never be backdoored. This is something so fundamental to the notion of what encryption is, that there must never be a compromise here. Pulling an encryption feature rather than rendering it worthless is the only noble path, when faced with these options. Removing Signal from the UK app store (when the addled bureaucrats target it next) is the only noble option.

I dunno why I am so annoyed by this, but no: caving would have been compromising encryption with a backdoor. They went with the only other option available to them, which was to pull encryption altogether.
-

Rather than backdooring the encryption, and thus giving consumers the illusion of protection? Yes. Those were their options.

If anything, they did the very opposite of "cave." You want a backdoor on encryption, as if this isn't an oxymoron to begin with?
Fine. We'll take away the encryption altogether.

Let's be clear: I'm far from an Apple apologist, but they didn't "cave" here. A publicly traded company exists to make money, and they'll tap dance to any song the government plays if it means the money keeps flowing. Beings act as they are.
It's UK officials who failed, and by proxy, the people who allow them to exist as officials in the first place. That you've allowed mentally addled goofballs into office who think backdoors in encryption are even an option is the failure.

I'm seeing more art, writing (often news coverage), and other original works being slyly passed off as the npub owner's own. I look forward to seeing broader adoption of hashes to prove ownership and attribution.

Just saw a YT clip of "Tales of the TMNT," which is apparently a 2024 animation. How is it that cartoon animation and art quality is getting worse than it was when I was a wee lad, watching my 1987 Ninja Turtles with glee?
