That’s not what they’re doing. They’re using Apple’s version for free. They’re also encouring their users to violate their terms of service agreements with Apple en-masse.

A non-trusted 3rd party that has the capability to decrypt messages? It’s a big problem.

It’s also a huge security hole

It’s not a public API. Hacking someone’s private API is already against law - charging $$ for it moreso.

I feel like conversatives just learn first principals and stop there. It’s kinda sad. The FCC, FTC, etc exist in order to keep our markets fair and consumer friendly.
This weird, free-trade utopia that they dream about does not exist, has never existed, and cannot exist. Instead when you remove all the regulation, you get anarchy like we see today in many 3rd world countries.
I would love to see our government get more efficient and targetted with its regulation, but to simply argue against it is extremely naive.
