UTim Cook: "ukudala umnyango ongasemva kuya kulingana nomhlaza kwisoftware"

Kudliwanondlebe olwenziwe kwiABC, Tim Cook unike ingxelo yakhe yedabi iApple enayo ne FBI apho iSebe lezoBulungisa licela inkampani ekwibhlokhi ukuba yenze ucango lwangasemva (nangona benqaba ukuvuma ukuba kunjalo). Njengoko nonke niyazi, xa i-FBI yacela u-Apple ukuba ayincede ukuvula i-iPhone 5c ye-sniper yohlaselo lwe-San Bernardino, i-CEO ye-Apple iphendule kwileta evulekileyo isithi eyona nto ibalulekileyo yimfihlo yabasebenzisi.

Kudliwanondlebe noDavid Muir, UTim Cook wachaza imeko yenkampani, watsho nokuba isoftware ethi i-FBI icela ukuba bayenze iya kuba «isoftware elingana nomhlaza«. Ngaphambi kokuqonda okuhle, amagama ambalwa anele, kodwa sonke siyazi ukuba umhlaza uhlala sisifo isasazeka kuwo wonke umzimba de ubomi besigulana buphele. Kwaye, njenge "zicelo ezongezelelweyo" ze vula ezinye ii-iPhones ezili-12 abananto yakwenza nokhuseleko lwesizwe, uCook ulungile.

Uninzi lwamanani abalulekileyo kwicandelo lobuchwepheshe, elinjenge-Facebook, uGoogle, u-Edward Snowden okanye u-WhatsApp, axhasa i-Apple kwimpikiswano yayo ne-FBI kwaye ethanda ubumfihlo babasebenzisi, kodwa kukwakho nabantu abacinga ngenye indlela, ezona meko zibalulekileyo ukuba ngumgqatswa wobongameli uDonald Trump, oye wacela ukuba boyike ngokuchasene neapile (into ayenzileyo kwi-iPhone yakhe), kunye naleyo yayisakuba yi-CEO ye-Microsoft u-Bill Gates, nangona kamva wazama ukubuyela umva esithi asiqondi ukuba uthetha ukuthini.

Kwisiqendu samva kweli bali, uApple uza kucela iCongress ukuba ithathe isigqibo ngetyala lokubethela i-iPhone kwaye ifuna ukuba ithathele ingqalelo umthetho wommiselo Wonke umthetho obhalwayo (Wikipedia, ngesiNgesi). Ndiyathemba ukuba isiqephu sokugqibela sisibonisa isiphelo esonwabisayo kuninzi lwethu apho thina basebenzisi singagcina idatha yabucala yabucala.
