2. Apple changing the definition of end-to-end encryption https://www.apple.com/child-safety/pdf/ExpandedProtectionsforChildrenFrequentlyAskedQuestions.pdf

3. Nonfree software will lead to helpless users and no defence against these malicious features.

4. This teaches us (although we had many occasions in the past) that Apple does not care about privacy.

5. Urge to switch to free software and reject Apple devices in particular.
