I wonder what specific case is causing the UK government to upend their recommendations in the first case :upside_down_face:

Not all governments or government people and those in power are smart. There literally could be any number of reasons why they may be doing this.

But I agree that there must be some breaking point for them to do all this now, with Apple and now this. I wonder what’s next.

I thought the base assumption was that they aren’t very smart, especially when it comes to technical stuff like this.

Well it is. For us, and those in the know. But they’ll like to think otherwise. And it’s this blind understanding and belief from all within to think the heads know what’s what and why and how - is why we have these issues and disasters.
