This is incorrect. Apple have withdrawn the advanced protection for uk users. The data is still encrypted end to end. The problem is that for the standard encryption Apple have the key for the data at rest, ie on their servers, when users don’t opt for advanced protection. The uk government will still require a warrant to access this so they can’t spy in an ad hoc way. That said, we will now rely on Apple pushing back against frivolous requests. Not good.
Are you sure it's still end-to-end? Read several data expert's takes and they said that the data will still be “encrypted”, but not “end-to-end"—with Apple obviously holding the decryption key.
The effect ultimately makes the private data accessible to Apple, to the government and any hackers/insiders who would again compromise Apple.
I am sure. Apple already hold the key which helps users recover data if they forget their password. With Advanced Protection the key sits on your phone so even Apple can’t decode.
