Is there any data which shows Facebook is not compliant? If anything Apple is definitely more non compliant and has publicly opposed FBI requests for data even

  > Is there any data which shows Facebook is not compliant? Maybe they are. The case is the Sword of Damocles. If they're compliant, it hangs over them to keep them that way, to be settled for a nominal fee some years from now. You'll know non-compliance if the sword comes down and chops off their arms and legs. > If anything Apple is definitely more non compliant and has publicly opposed FBI requests for data even in cases with poor optics and pushed publicly more for e2e encryption and user privacy over law enforcement needs. That's a different fight. Unelected officials trying to score PR points in favor of increased spying powers, as opposed to elected officials who have different means and goals.

    It is anti-trust suit to divest Instagram/WhatsApp by the DoJ, other actions against them are also by agencies/ officials who are not elected either . Same DoJ does not pursue any monopoly action against Apple, even when customers its hurts consumers pockets directly like with the App Store 30% cut. I do not see any difference between types of agencies and actions for either company. Apple makes distinct public steps towards making life harder for the government and do not invite retribution/reaction from the government. Facebook does not publicly do much to oppose government policy and they need a sword hanging over them ? To me this does not hold water.
