What I still don’t understand is why they haven’t activated it in Canada when Helath Canada approved it for use weeks ago. 

It probably takes a few weeks for them to translate all the user instructions into Canadian.

Disappointed in Apple here. They should have stood up to the UK Government and just said no. 

If you're "disappointed in Apple here" you clearly don't understand the subject. Go re-read

the other alternative would be to make a backdoor to all iPhone end to end encryption in the world and tell no one about it. That's what you'd rather them do? No, you just didn't read carefully. 

I seriously mean it 

Apple should have just had the balls to say no. Need some brinkmanship. 

Ball would then be in the UK government court to see what they would actually do.

What could they do? Fine? Don’t pay. Ban Apple ? Would never happen. 

Ok then- you want them to be jailed for contempt of a direct legal order... that's one hell of a sacrifice you're willing to make for someone else. 

And where is your true outrage at meta/whatsapp and all other messaging platforms that have just gone along with the order, allow the UK to snoop on its people globally, and have said nothing? Or you think Apple should just join them and give the UK a global back door to E2EE?

With great power comes great responsibility 

All of these companies should just leave E2E encryption activated, and obviously refuse a backdoor….

This would then force the UK government into a corner. Are they then seriously gonna start jailing executives like China? It would be interesting and a smart move from Apple etc to see if the UK would actually do that.

I think the price conscious would choose a lower price vs FaceID and AI.

And also, for your average use, AI really is a junk feature.

Whatever Apple say I feel like I am being used as a free trainer for their AI 

From the noises car manufacturers have been making I don't think many (if any) of them will ever allow their cars to becomes dependant on Apple (or any other) software.

I don't really understand why? It must cost them a lot of money to develop their own systems, and do they make money from it? does anyone actually ever subscribe to their SatNav updates?! do they generate an income some other way?

Regardless, for me the current CarPlay implementation is excellent and I expect will be the best we have for the foreseeable future.
