  1. Comey needs to go take a coarse in American History… of coarse he wants more power… we value privacy and anonymity not because we wish to tie the hands of those whom would not use it in tyrannical ways but to keep those whom do not yet have the power from the ability of using it in tyrannical ways. Comey’s Statement is downright unamerican.

  2. As much as I don't like Apple iPhones!!! (because I LOVE my Apple Computers)! Why would any of these idiots THINK IT IS OK, to get into peoples private phones??? Come on AMERICANS??? Do you want it to be your phones Next?! Apple hold your head high, and stand up for yourself!!! I know if SAMSUNG lets FBI in my phone? As much as I love my Notes?! Hell I'd go right back to Apple!!!

  3. So will it be ok for terrorists to all have iPhones then and do what they want on it and never have the phone opened?
    I understand what he is saying regarding the back door and other people can get your info if he does the software but there is a very fine line here people’s safety and personal information (their lives on a device) or the actual lives of innocent people in the future if there is info on this phone!
    What would you ask for if it was your loved one that had been targeted and killed would you still be saying oh go apple 👍🏻 no I know I wouldn’t!.
    I do however agree there shouldn’t be a new software that affects all iPhones but maybe something built that each iPhone is independently coded some how!

  4. Apple is top-notch.. i know what the android users are saying, i was the same when i had android, bashing apple products because i couldn't afford them..

  5. Even if Apple could give the information to the government that could have helped prevent the terrorist attack, there probably wouldn't have been any grounds for the government to go after the terrorist since, until an illegal act is committed, there are no grounds to access the information. Having access to anybody's data on the "suspicion of threats to national security" is not sufficient grounds.

  6. What he's saying is total bullshit because apple can view all the stuff you do, they could unlock the phone, they could do anything.
    What Tim is saying is morally correct, but we all know that he could do it.

  7. Tim Cook, please STEP DOWN as CEO of Apple, STOP DRAGGING APPLE AS COMPANY DOWN!!! All innovation at Apple Inc. stopped since you took Steve Job's place. Get Jony Ive, innovative designer, back, and LET JONY LEAD APPLE INC. Your lack of imagination and hunger for profitability resulted in Apple using some of the oldest product designs for over 10 years in the row with very few improvements and zero innovation. There is a cool video @ that you can watch that explains how Apple as company failing year after year since Steve Jobs died in 2011. Be a man Tim Cook, step down as CEO, and let other more innovative people lead Apple into the future they deserve as it was once set by Steve Jobs and Jony Ive. Stop embracing yourself and Apple Inc. year after year!!!

  8. Ok so let me ask you , what do u say to the people who say open it ?
    We cant its a safety issue …
    Ok but whats do u say to people who want it open …
    This ( reporter ) is either a def moron, or there is someone in his ear saying ask again ask again.
    Apple is saying the right thing, i just don't believe that they cant already do it .

  9. He asks the same question in a different way and get the same result lol, Tim should of said to him interview over get the "F" out of my office.

  10. HA HA , WHERE ARE WE HERE ? EXPOSE PEOPLE–YOU MEAN BURY PEOPLE WITH AN ONSLAUGHT OF FORCED DEGRADATION WAY WAY BEYOND THE POINT OF VULNERABILITY INFINITISMALLY INTO THE REALM OF SLUDGING IT DOWN THE VICTIM'S THROAT WHO IS CONTINIOUSLY SCREAMING I DO NOT WANT THE SMUT-I DO NOT WANT THE SMUT WHILE THE WEALTHY SAY "WHY ME , PLEASE LEAV ME ALONE–VALUES VALUES–SHOO GO AWAY ?
