The UK government's "technical capability notice" requires blanket access rather than merely assistance to access a specific account, the paper reported, citing unnamed sources.
It's over bongchuds 
once they see my right wing memes I'm done. This is my last broadcast. 
Except of course this isn't the first time Britain tried to enforce their Orwellian speech laws with Apple and then 
Literally Nothing Happened
That will not stop the users of /r/unitedkingdom from having a mental breakdown
Uh oh, someone's been in a coma since 2016!
that's only because we have to buy a new phone every month when they get snatched by a moped rowdie 
Jfc, can we have just a few weeks at least without some authoritarian bullshit being thrust upon us.
reminder that bongs vigorously support mass surveillance and banning knives so they don't have to talk about the Rwandan Question
this is the thin end of the wedge and they will be coming for this on all platforms.
No because google has probably already enthusiastically served up all of its users' data 
To be fair, the Tories had extensive plans to break end to end encryption too.
yes we may be jackboot authoritarians but have you considered The Tories The Tories The Tories the Tories The Tories
There is a huge difference here between 'back door with a warrant', and 'back door with no warrant'.
I believe 'back door with no warrant' is something Pakistanis were doing to british schoolchildren between the years of 2002 and 2018

TSMC has a higher market cap than Taiwan's GDP, does that mean they have more money than everything in Taiwan, including themselves?

Heck yeah. Do you think if the Taiwanese government wants TSMC to deal with a particular vendor in the supply chain that enriches the government the company wouldn't threaten to relocate and twist the arms of the government till it backed down?
Oh you meant in a financial sense. That too yes. TSMC's IP is worth more than everything Taiwan owns. Without it, why would anyone care what happens to a piece of rock in the south China sea?

TSMC is majority owned by foreign investors. TSMC's scientists come from different countries. Why would their IP be nationalized? Its revenue and earnings are incorporated in Taiwan's GDP, but why would the IP itself be nationalized?
Coca Cola's IP is not a product of the US. If it sells the IP to a Chinese company, the revenue is calculated in the US GDP as an export, but that's the extent of it.
TSMC isn't NASA.
