Absolutely.
We've seen this time after time where the 3 letter agencies give companies an ultimatum: either comply or get shut down.
The worse part is that nobody can do anything about it.
Under the cloak of secrecy and threats a faceless government is shaping major policy, breaking laws etc...
My only hope is that the biggest companies can speak up since they have a bit of a leverage. They can rally people behind them if the requests are borderline unethical, like spying on everybody.
If Apple can't deal with this, NOBODY else can.
- ClumsyPilot 5y ago"either comply or get shut down' I think if a three letter agency 'shuts down' Apple, the political blowback will be nuclear. The agency will get put on a leash if they pull some shit like tthat
- arthur_sav 5y agoThat's why i said big companies have some leverage. People will notice. If they don't speak up then nobody else can.
