Apple CEO Tim Cook first appeared on the cover of "Time", the reason for which was his irreconcilable position in relation to the protection of personal data of users. In an interview with the publication, the CEO of the Yabloko company spoke about his vision of the situation and criticized Donald Trump's call to boycott the products of the Cupertinians.
We will remind that recently, so far mainly through the press, a pick is being conducted between the Apple leadership and the US Department of Justice. The authorities are demanding that the Cupertinos create a tool to jailbreak the iOS operating system so that they can access the information contained on the smartphone of the late San Bernardino terrorist. However, Apple believes that the special services will not limit themselves to using the backdoor for the platform only in this case, but will use it whenever they please. Officials have already filed a lawsuit in court, the first meeting of which is scheduled for late March.
Candidates for the presidency of the United States also took advantage of the hype surrounding this event. In particular, Donald Trump condemned the position of Apple's management and called on consumers to boycott the products of the "apple" company. In an interview with Time, Tim Cook commented on Trump's remarks:
Also, the head of Apple told reporters that he was unpleasantly surprised by the actions of the authorities. In his opinion, people do not understand how serious the consequences can be if Cupertino agrees to cooperate with the special services.
