The government is suggesting that it might ban some Apple security updates. Under the latest plans, tech companies would need to notify the British government before rolling out a security fix but might be refused permission if it blocks a vulnerability that’s being exploited by security services.

    Wonder if Apple are running the numbers and seeing whether pulling out the UK altogether wouldn’t lose them much money.

      I believe Apple’s flat out told them that if they push these restrictions they’ll disable iMessage and other services for UK residents.
