I never had anything important on iCloud, but even considering that, last week I removed everything on it and I am selling my old iPhone 13. I recommend this to everybody.
And not only that, remove any Google account on your Android, and work on it without Play Store, using F-Droid as your main source of apps.
Of course, also do not ever use any Meta thing (Facebook, Whatsapp, Instagram, etc), or X.

The only way to be free is by getting rid of all tyrants on the little things you use in your life, starting with technology.

🚨 The UK government just tried to force Apple to build a backdoor into iCloud, giving them the power to decrypt anyone’s data, anywhere in the world — without telling the public. Not just UK citizens. Not just suspected criminals. Everyone.

This is one of the most brazen assaults on digital privacy ever attempted by a so-called democracy. The demand, issued in secret under the UK’s Orwellian Investigatory Powers Act (a.k.a. the "Snoopers' Charter"), would turn Apple into a global surveillance arm of the British government — zero oversight, zero transparency.

Apple’s response? Instead of breaking encryption for everyone, the company is considering pulling encrypted iCloud storage from the UK entirely. But Britain doesn’t just want access to British data — they’re trying to force an American company to compromise American users on American soil.
