Where does it say this? I don’t think it’s technically feasible to turn off Advanced Data Protection for currently existing users without said users losing all their data since Apple doesn’t have access to the encryption keys.
They can’t decrypt existing data as they don’t have the keys to do so. However they can turn off the feature so the device once again uploads without encryption.
They are relaxing security at the demand of the UK so still caved in to demands.
Also, it will affect existing users when it will be turned off for them at a later date.
