Comment on Apple's Tim Cook defends encryption. When will other tech CEOs do so?parent

Comments

Eric Schmidt needs to be explaining this & why it's important to his politician friends and sphere of influence. Perhaps he already is, but it would be meaningful politically if he (and others) said something publicly. Cook is kind of the lone ranger on the matter as far as public discourse is concerned, post Paris & San Bernardino.

Exactly. It's incredibly valuable to have the CEO of the biggest tech company in the world (the beloved Apple no less) making the counter argument in a debate that has quickly regressed to the early 90s Crypto war levels.
