Apple should really stand against and tell UK to back off. Also applies to other countries.
The UK government has asked Apple to provide backdoors so they can access their users encrypted iCloud data.
Given the global political climate, I hope Apple stands strong against government surveillance of private citizens.

The fact that Deepseek R1 was released three days /before/ Stargate means these guys stood in front of Trump and said they needed half a trillion dollars while they knew R1 was open source and trained for $5M.

It is always part of their playbook. Sell 30 cents on the dollar compared to American counterparts. Companies will come in and buy. Deepseek will be on a similar trajectory in the future. Which is good!
Former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger is already using DeepSeek instead of OpenAI at his startup, Gloo

Reddit’s collective action of moderators banning links to X is more powerful than you think.
Often when I’m doing research for articles, Reddit hits top 5 in Google results.
This will have a cumulative effect for SEO and drive X even further off the main road of the internet highway.
