Their reasoning is sound imo and shows that they are actually interested in maintaining privacy, as they are preemptively cancelling this as it only opens the door. It doesn’t change that they need to find a way to replace it that doesn’t do this though, probably exclusively on-device.

It doesn’t really spark fresh controversy at all. It’s just a pitiful rehash of an already dead argument.
Apple decided not to enable spying on people’s own devices. The ends do not justify the means.
This is a great opportunity to identify the group of people and organization that advocate for the government to scan your private data, a violation to your privacy and rights.
It is very obvious they have very limited wisdom or are acting solely to serve a certain party interest i.e, the authority that wants your data without any hassle.
Another possibility is they are a complete retarded. For anyone that interested,
- Christian Brothers Investment
- Degroof Petercam, a Belgian investment firm
Maybe it is time to research into these two entities, and are all their customers agreed on their stands, and wiling to give up their rights on privacy, basically allowed the corporations and government to shut them down if they decided they no longer in line with the corps and gov in future.
