The just-launched iOS 16.2 release candidate adds AirDrop restrictions to all iPhone models around the world. One month ago, 16.1.1 made the Chinese version of the iPhone lose the function of continuously opening AirDrop to all users, and changed it to ten minutes as the upper limit, which greatly raised the threshold for citizens to send photos to strangers in public spaces. Commentators believe that this is due to the Chinese government’s pressure on Apple after the Peng Zaizhou incident at Sitong Bridge in Beijing. In most cases, the iOS proof is the final version. Considering the high upgrade rate of iPhone users, a large number of iPhones will be limited by this soon.
Calling everyone not to upgrade is not only unrealistic, but also unreasonable: that will lead to the lack of necessary security patches for mobile phone systems. Also unnecessary. One can always find another way. Don’t forget that iMessage is end-to-end encrypted by default and has no speech censorship . It is useful to send pictures to strangers, but it may be more useful to send them to relatives and friends.
