What other "large cloud providers"? Ones that are similar to Apple? Or general cloud companies?

And is "pressure from the FBI" really the only reason why Apple might hold backup keys? Please sketch out your "lost device, need to restore from backup" user journey. For a real person, who has only an iPhone.

How about "enter your master passphrase to access your photos". Like literally all syncing password managers work, or things like Authy work to back up your one-time password seeds. It's not complicated.
