Let's be clear: I'm far from an Apple apologist, but they didn't "cave" here. A publicly traded company exists to make money, and they'll tap dance to any song the government plays if it means the money keeps flowing. Beings act as they are.

It's UK officials who failed, and by proxy, the people who allow them to exist as officials in the first place. That you've allowed mentally addled goofballs into office who think backdoors in encryption are even an option is the failure.
