Apple has removed its Advanced Data Protection (ADP) tool from the UK after the government demanded access to user data under the Investigatory Powers Act. the ADP tool provided end-to-end encryption for iCloud data, meaning only users could access their stored information. without this feature, Apple can now access user data and share it with law enforcement if presented with a warrant.

so does this mean that a non-UK person visiting the UK will have their encryption disabled?

"Figures compiled by the nonprofit College Board indicate the average student attending an in-state public university this year faces a tuition bill of $11,610, which is down 4% from a decade earlier when taking inflation into account. But the real savings come in what the average student actually pays after getting grants and financial aid. That’s down 40% over the decade, from $4,140 to $2,480 annually, according to the data."

My team launched our first live service today: a service that creates Merkle-Patrica Trie account inclusion proofs for Ethereum along with every block, using Binius.

Currently it's still a proof-of-concept, but one day soon this approach will bring fast stateless clients to Ethereum!
