i'm quoting from tim cook. while we believe the fbi's intentions are good, it would be wrong for the government to force us to build a back door into our products and this would underman the very freedoms our government is to protect. he points out he has cooperated with the fbi in then san bernardino investigation when it comments comes to data already in the fbi's investigation and providing expert advice. bob redell, today in the bay. >> this fight just getting started. thank you. >> it has you saying tim cook is doing exactly what he said he was going to do. >> exactly. i want to take you back a couple months ago, not a surprise. stanford university, tim cook invited to a cybersecurity summit by president obama himself. he stands up there in front of the crowd and makes his first major statement the secrets on our iphone are our secrets and not the government. apple does not know what's on our phones and cannot figure out what's on our phones and will not build something to break into those phones. you have

tim cook: "this would be bad for america. it would also set a precedent that i believe many people in america would be offended by." but in the name of public safety.. attorney general loretta lynch... is urging apple to comply. loretta lynch: "judges all over the country and on the supreme court have said that those parties must assist if it is reasonably a judge in california ordered apple to unlock san bernardino i-phone and apple has happening insisting -- at stake is the data security of millions of law abiding people.. "hands off our phones!" tim cook: "some things are hard and some things are right. and this is one of those things." apple has until friday to file a response to the judge's order and some legal experts say this is a landmark case that could reach the law abiding people.. "hands off our phones!" tim cook: "some things are hard and some stake is the data security of millions of law abiding people.. "hands off our phones!" tim cook: "some things are hard and some things are right. and some things are both.

now tim cook is responding. but when you're responding in a case where there's a terrorist act we all saw the aftermath of that playing out. on twitter, on social media and conversations i don't hear a lot of sympathy for this position. somehow am and others in the industry that want to defend encryption want to get out ahead of this and say here's a solution. what we can do to help more. >> there's no sympathy. we saw what happened in san bernardino. we haven't really seen a clear example of what the worst case scenario could be and apple's tim cook is saying they're a u.s. based company but they operate globally and if the u.s. government can demand this can china's government? can russia's government? can other governments do the same thing? >> i thought where you were going with it is if this is put into apple devices it's going to be unbelievably detrimental to their international sales. no other country is going to want to buy this equipment if the fbi and nsa accessed these devices. nicholas weaver put ou

this was actually the first time apple's tim cook has talked about this case on camera. for cook, it's clear this controversy represents a lot more than just giving the government access one time to one iphone. >> what is at stake here is can the government compel apple to write software that we believe would make hundreds of millions of customers vulnerable around the world, including the u.s. and also trample civil liberties that are at the basic foundation of what this country was made on. >> as you guys know, the government is demanding that cook order his engineers to write new software that would bypass the security features of this iphone. so cook's points are twofold. one, creating such software creates real risk if hackers, cyber criminals, or foreign governments can steal that code. then it puts the security of millions of iphones in jeopardy, he says. second, it could set a bad precedent. if the government can force apple to unlock a phone, then what's to stop it from ordering apple or other tech companies to intercept messages or track locations of their users

i think tim cook is all about business. i don't think he is about protecting america like fbi director comey is. this is business matter to tim cook and now to google and microsoft who apparently are joining in with amicus briefs in support of apple. reality is, i distrust government as much as anybody does but i don't distrust government's desire to safeguard and protect american citizens. at the end of the day, that is what this is about. cheryl: i have to say, it was a brief that reporters were given. one of the things apple said, this demand violates apple's first amendment rights against compelled speech and discrimination. that screams supreme court to me. i want to go back to director comey to see what the difference he says the court is actually asking apple to do, versus what apple said. listen. >> in the case in san bernanadino, the judge, the federal judge has ordered the maker of the phone to do two things. that is, disable the auto erase function on the phone, so that if the fbi is trying to guess the pass code

tim cook is looking to do a big number, probably to show how liberal he is. boycott apple until such time as they give that information. i think that's a great idea. [applause] lou: and a senior apple executive firing right back, saying donald trump's call for a boycott simply puts the company in standing with other good people trump has criticized. and the justice department? well, trump and the justice department are on the same side in this one, extending the timetable for apple's compliance with a court order until friday of next week, and the justice department made it clear at the same time that the patience of the attorney general with apple is wearing thin. our top story tonight is the fight for south carolina. trump right now poised for a huge win after leading polls there since last november. so the principal question is who has the most to lose with a disappointing finish? cruz, rubio or bush? fox news chief political correspondent carl cameron is in columbia, south carolina, with our report. >> reporter: on the eve of the 2016 south carolina presi

i think tim cook is standing up more for national security than anyone right now.mily: so the same question with an droird, if this is saving lines of, targeting one criminal, what is wrong with that? >> i believe tim cook is saving more lives by making this decision and it's the right way to go. what you are hearing from public technology companies, maybe they're not supporting this. i've spent the last day with cyber enception experts and everyone agrees that tim cook is making the right decision here. the government is asking us to build a unicorn, something that doesn't exist and if it's made for one, it will be made for others and the code will spread. so this is a very landmark case here and we need to make sure we hold our ground. emily: bob, what do you make of how as businesses these companies have respond or not? hiroshi lockheimer stopped short of saying we would -- would do exactly the same thing. >> couple things to think about. number one, the details of this case aren't necessarily for release of a, an encryption key. that clearly would never pass mu

that is what apple's tim cook is saying.ment is saying no, no, we want access to this one iphone. deirdre: ben, you're in agreement obviously? >> i am. it is obviously a legal issue, but in my mind this isn't trying to overstep due process, right, like pre-crimes, trying to figure out -- deirdre: murder already happened. >> they're terrorists. >> we'll leave it there. ben collins, elizabeth mcdonald and phillip siegel. thank you very much. >>> some pension funds, 401(k) plans, trading accounts, billionaire investor carl icahn cutting its stake in apple last year. the stock declined. this according to new egg regulatory filing. his new stake, $1.5 billion. some still exposure there. tiger global picked up one million dollars of the stock recently. jared levy ask with me. apple down 20% in the past 12 months. more than the s&p's drop in that time. is apple a buy or a sell here? >> there is a lot to consider, the point is carl icahn has skin in the game at 1.5 billion. that is something to consider. apple's problem is fact it h

tim cook is not protecting americans. tim cook is protecting apple.erri: you make a good point but as i said all of silicon valley seems to be lined up against the fbi here. >> yes. gerri: isis, just let me mention quickly here, and i want to hear what you have to say about it, direct threats against mark zuckerberg, jack dorsey, leaders of the tech community. isn't it ironic those people are being threatened and yet they don't want to do what they can to help fight the fight? >> it is about business. certainly ironic. and hypocrisy, thy name is silicon valley. while they spin this myth about the government snooping on us all, in fact, who are the great data collectors on americans? google. google. i served in the military for almost 22 years, in military intelligence. the government has all my military records. google knows more about me than the federal government does. gerri: okay. >> facebook. they're the ones are stealing our data and selling it and profiting from it and they're blaming the government? gerri: i can just see the emails coming in n

heard another soundbite from tim cook.you would not mind indulging us and we will chat about that, chris. stand talle need to and stand tall on principle. our job is to protect our havemers and our customers incredibly detailed information on their phones. there's probably more information about you on your phone then there is in your house. our smartphones are loaded with our intimate conversations, our financial data, our health records. they are also loaded with the location of our kids in many cases. not just about privacy. it's about public safety. argumentsese are the you would anticipate, right? the fbi will have a great comeback to these arguments? mr. cook iss, making somewhat of an emotional argument and he's making a lot of good points in the sense that the smartphone today is a gold mine of information. it is a gold mine for government. it is a gold mine for hackers. apple is saying they are standing up for the privacy and security protections of their customers and they certainly have a business interest in do

what the government is asking tim cook is you designed it, you can design your way out of it for this one time. and then you can destroy that. the term i find most offensive is the government and what tim back door. the government is not asking for a back door. they have come in with a federal warrant, based on probable cause, signed by the united states magistrate, that is how we do it in a democracy. they are asking for a front door. there is no bank. there is no safe company. there is no vault. there is no door that can't be penetrated with a lawful order from a u.s. court. that is also how we protect our people. >> why do you think apple is doing this, john? >> well, i think they are doing this just to take the shrillness down a level, i think for them, this is a business model, which is about privacy and security in an age where a lot of people, least of all, the government, are trying to get into people's stuff and exploit it. so i think there is a right reason for it, and i think there is a commercial appeal for it. the point is that they have put those interests ahead of all o

here's what tim cook said in part in his letter this morning. acknowledged the awkwardness that the company finds itself in now that it is dueling with the fbi. cook writing, apple is a uniquely american company. it does not feel right to be on the opposite side of the government in a case centering on the freedoms and liberties that government is meant to protect. meanwhile, fbi director james comey posting his own blog post on a legal blog last night, writing, the particular legal issue is actually quite narrow. the relief we seek is limited, and its value increasingly obsolete, because the technology continues to evolve. so carl, one of the key points here is whether or not this technique, if apple is forced to use it, could be replicated again and again in other cases. law enforcement officials across the country have said they have other iphones they would like to get into, but the fbi very much at pains to make this just about this one iphone that belonged to syed farook, one of the two shooters in san bernardino, california, back in decem
