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.

Signal already said that they're willing to leave the UK if the UK goes ahead with their E2EE backdoor law. I can see more companies doing the same if the government keeps insisting that every foreign company complies with their bullshit.
