Apple Data Protection Tool in UK

Apple recently stopped offering its end-to-end encryption tool called Advanced Data Protection (ADP) to new users in the UK and announced that existing users in the country will lose their access at an unconfirmed later date. Advanced Data Protection was introduced by Apple in 2022, expanding the categories of data that were protected under end-to-end encryption on iCloud storage. The tool encrypts data in a way that it can only be decrypted by the person who owns the iCloud account, removing even Apple’s access to it. Experts call this a step backwards for consumer security in the UK with worldwide consequences. What is your take on UK data privacy rules ?
