Apple says it would remove iMessage and FaceTime in the UK rather than break end-to-end encryption (9to5mac.com)

I don’t doubt it. Apple would probably just ship a new app called “Texts” or something that only does traditional cell carrier text messages, and then refer customers to third party solutions for video conferencing. A nice explanatory web page on Apple’s website to point customers in the region towards would be the cherry on top.

No need for a new app. The app is already called „messages“. Just remove iMessage support and it works „fine“
