I fear (Apple) will do something that allows the government to do what it wants (with a bit more work) without explicitly installing something.

For example, with the UK encryption debacle, Apple removed Advanced Data Protections (e2e encryption) for iCloud users in the UK. So users' notes, photos, emails are possibly open.

Why this isn’t being done at the SIM/baseband level is beyond me.
