Overview
The Boston Globe quoted Stewart Baker in an article titled "Standoff Between Apple, US Over Fla. Shooter's iPhone Again Has Consumers' Data Security in Doubt." The article, published January 14, discusses how the federal government and Apple are again fighting over whether cell phones should be accessible to investigators in criminal cases.
Baker, former general counsel at the National Security Agency, claims that Apple and other companies should build backdoors for police. "Tim Cook talks a lot about social responsibility, and his company has a responsibility to help the government catch terrorists who use its products," Baker says, referring to Apple's chief executive. "Instead, the company has been spending enormous resources on making it harder and harder for the government to do that."
