Apple security updates could be banned by British government (9to5mac.com)

The government is suggesting that it might ban some Apple security updates. Under the latest plans, tech companies would need to notify the British government before rolling out a security fix but might be refused permission if it blocks a vulnerability that’s being exploited by security services.

Agree, I just worry that these ideas keep coming back again and again. No government or entity can be trusted and we need to keep an eye on them haha.

Obviously the UK is much more concerning at this specific point in time.
