That's the only reason I'm not confident that Apple will kill this. They wouldn't want the regulatory attention and (at least for now) this is a niche area that few people know about.
- xgl5k 3y agoEasier to kill something when it is a small niche area that few people know about rather than wait until it gets bigger and more people use it.

But now they are providing a paid (with a free tier) service that runs on Apple/Meta/Signal infrastructure. This is asking to draw unwanted attention towards yourself.
