So they're conducting security audits in line with best practices post executive terminations, and, as a result, security updates are being delayed up to 6 months. They're also recommending alternatives for the time being for those who may be targeted (example being human rights activists). Considering the reasoning, I can't hold this against them. Also considering many are still rocking android 10 or iOS 15, this update pause (hopefully just a pause) isn't the worst thing in the world.
