Will many UK Apple users care that they can't use ADP any more?

I’m not an Apple user nor do I (intentionally) store data other than on my own HDDs. So I’ve no idea whether this

will bother

a) Only paedos, drug dealers and other criminals,

b) People who are at risk from repressive foreign governments, or organised crime, or who are working to safeguard those who are,

c) A significant number of regular Apple users who just don’t want their innocent data to be hackable.

Does anyone have any idea how many will care ?

One of the fauxish selling points of Apple was that their were ‘safer’ this may damage that illusion.

I back up my iPhone to the cloud. If anyone hacks in they’ll be extremely bored looking at photos and I never use the phone for banking.

So I don’t give a shit tbh.

The standard answer to the (any) state wanting citizens to carry ID cards or allow access to data etc is that law abiding citizens have nothing to worry about (for now).

I care but I guess I’m in a minority. Most people don’t give a fuck if they have nothing to hide. I do. I don’t want you looking at anything. Why? Firstly it’s none of your business. Secondly, I don’t like my privacy being invaded. Fck off gov

As far a i am aware a court order is still needed to access data.
