庫克為用戶隱私,違抗「老大哥」

2016-02-29  TWM

二月16日,蘋果執行長庫克發表一封公開信,公開違抗聯邦法院的命令。事件起源於去年12月,加州發生恐怖攻擊,其中一名攻擊者使用過iPhone,法院因此命令蘋果設法解鎖這支iPhone,以幫助聯邦調查局破案。庫克說明,蘋果現在沒有這樣的能力,而如果今日解鎖iPhone,等於日後無數iPhone的隱私都陷於危境;庫克說,這項舉動將賦予「老大哥」過多權力,最終可能動搖公民隱私與自由。一樁驚世的法律案件,因而成形。 (蔡曜蓮)The United States government has demanded that Apple take an unprecedented step which threatens the security of our customers. We oppose this order, which has implications far beyond the legal case at hand. This moment calls for public discussion, and we want our customers and people around the country to understand what is at stake. While we believe the FBI's intentions are good, it would be wrong for the government to force us to build a backdoor into our products. And ultimately, we fear that this demand would undermine the very freedoms and liberty our government is meant to protect.

美國政府要求蘋果採取一項前所未有的舉動,這將威脅到我們顧客的安全性。我們反對這個命令,因為它所導致的影響將遠超過眼前的法律官司。

這種時刻需要公眾的討論,我們希望蘋果的顧客與全國人民理解這件事(個人隱私)已危在旦夕。即使我們相信聯邦調查局的用意是好的,政府強迫我們在產品裡安置後門卻是錯的。而且最終,我們擔心這個要求將削弱政府立意保護的、個人行動與思考上的自由。
