    I think it’s weird because:

    Your iMessage and FaceTime conversations are encrypted end-to-end, so they can’t be read while they’re sent between devices.

    Is completely bullshit. It’s not secure, they can be read because iMessage is the way you send texts to Android as well as iOS, and apples absolute refusal to budge or to adopt other standards means that regulation is the only way to modernize a 30 year old protocol.
