5 Best quotes from Tim Cook's recent speech on privacy and security
Recently, Apple's CEO Tim Cook delivered a speech on privacy and security during EPIC's Champions of Freedom event held in Washington, DC. We want to share with you the 5 best quotes from this speech.
1. "Our privacy is being attacked on multiple fronts."
2. "I'm speaking to you from Silicon Valley, where some of the most prominent and successful companies have built their businesses by lulling their customers into complacency about their personal information. They're gobbling up everything they can learn about you and trying to monetize it. We think that's wrong. And it's not the kind of company that Apple wants to be."
3. "If you put a key under the mat for the cops, a burglar can find it, too. Criminals are using every technology tool at their disposal to hack into people's accounts. If they know there's a key hidden somewhere, they won't stop until they find it."
4. There's another attack on our civil liberties that we see heating up every day — it's the battle over encryption. Some in Washington are hoping to undermine the ability of ordinary citizens to encrypt their data."
5. "Removing encryption tools from our products altogether, as some in Washington would like us to do, would only hurt law-abiding citizens who rely on us to protect their data. The bad guys will still encrypt, it's easy to do and readily available."
