    The UK didn’t make end to end encryption illegal. They just asked Apple to make them a backdoor, so it would technically not be end to end encryption anymore.

      Well, it still is end-to-end encrypted. Just from your end to Apple’s end. 😂

      Funny enough I had activated the Advanced Protection (which deletes the iCloud encryption key from Apple’s servers) like a week before that UK thing went into effect. And since Apple isn’t allowed to talk about this, there’s no pressure to deactivate it again so far.
