谷歌CEO桑德尔·皮蔡已经过加密的iPhone排序的支持了苹果的辩论。
在一系列的Twitter帖子,皮采盛赞苹果CEO蒂姆·库克写一个“重要的”一封信公开反对美国联邦调查局的解密需求。“迫使企业使黑客可能会危及用户的隐私,”桑达写道。
While Pichai noted that Google provides data access to law enforcement when legally required, that’s different from making tech companies enable hacking of customers’ devices and data. “Could be a troubling precedent,” Pichai added.

The FBI wants Apple to provide a special version of iOS that prevents a phone from erasing itself after too many failed login attempts. This would enable brute force attacks on password-protected iPhones, and help investigators to break into the phone of Syed Rizwan Farook, one of the shooters in a December attack that killed 14 people in San Bernadino, California. Earlier this week, a U.S. District Court judge in California责令苹果建立这个软件, as it doesn’t exist currently.
库克的回应认为,建立该软件会危及所有用户,因为没有办法超过它的使用保证控制。联邦调查局(FBI)的提案还设置了一个危险的判例,库克说,通过赋予政府权力,以达到到任何设备。
“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,” Cook wrote. “And ultimately, we fear that this demand would undermine the very freedoms and liberty our government is meant to protect.”
为什么这样的问题:尽管安全专家和政治家们一直在争论加密和后门几个月,法院的命令和库克的信,已经引起争论沸溢。但到目前为止,其他高科技公司已经从对FBI的需求强烈的公众姿态回避。皮采的语句是最接近的任何公司已经到了苹果的认可,但即使他服用了一些批评不提供一个更强大的姿态。
Sundar’s tweetstorm was pretty obviously passed through like 18 layers of Google Legal hell before we saw it. “Could,” “might,” “troubling.”
