Absolutely disgusted by the government’s latest assault on privacy. Apple has been forced to strip away its Advanced Data Protection for UK users, all because Westminster wants backdoor access to encrypted data. This isn’t just an overreach: it’s a blatant attack on our right to digital security. David and I have built our business on Apple products, trusting in their security. And now, because of a government that doesn’t have a clue about tech or the industries it’s meddling with, we’re being told that protection doesn’t matter anymore. It’s outrageous. People have questioned whether Starmer has authoritarian tendencies—well, there’s no question anymore. This is what authoritarianism looks like: prying into people’s private data under the guise of ‘safety’, while putting us all at greater risk. If they can break encryption, so can hackers. They’ve not only made our data less secure but have set a terrifying precedent for the future. But for any one worried, UK Homes Network is fully encrypted. Our infrastructure is built with privacy at its core, meaning neither hackers nor the government (let’s be honest, they’re basically the same thing at this point) can get their hands on our data. Your information is protected, and we will never compromise on security, no matter what idiotic laws they pass. Another decision made by the Westminster elite, totally detached from reality, with zero understanding of the damage they’re causing. They claim to be protecting people, what they’re really doing is stripping away our rights, one by one. Furious. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cgj54eq4vejo
