Apple is digging in its heels in its standoff against the fbis demand to help it break the iphone used by one of the San Bernardino killers. Abcs david muir sat down with apple ceo tim cooke who is much more than a single iphone. They have our deepest sympathy what theyve been through, mo one should have to go through. Apple has cooperated with the fbi fully in this case. They came to us and asked us for all the information we had on this phone. And we gave everything that we had. But this case is not about one phone. This case is about the future. What is at stake here is can the government compel apple to write software that we believe would make hundreds of millions of customers vulnerable around the world including the u. S. And youd have to write that system in order to unlock that phone . Yes. The only way we know would be to write a piece of software that we view as sort of the softwarequiv lint of cancer. We think its bad news to write. We would never write it. We have never written it. And that is what is at stake her. Believes that syed farook used that phone to communicate with his wife, his accomplice. Do you struggle with the possibility that there could be information on that phone that could reveal other plots and people who were involved in planning the attack . David, if we knew a way to get the information on the phone that we havent already given, if we knew a way to do this, that would not expose hundreds of millions of other people to issues, we would obviously do it. Reporter i want to get to what the fbi director james comey said. He said its about 14 people who were slaughtered and many more had their lives ruined. Maybe we cant look the survivors in the eye and ourselves if we dont follow any possible lead out there. Do do you understand where hes coming from . I do. This is an incredibly complex issue to place a backdoor if the we believe it puts hundreds of millions of customers at risk. We need to stand tall and stand tall on principle. Theres probably more information about you on your phone than there is in your house. Our smartphones are loaded with our intimate conversations can, our financial data, our health records. Theyre also loaded with the location of our kids in many cases. And so its not just about privacy but its also about public safety. But in your quiet moments, do you have any concern that you might be able to prevent a terrorist attack by breaking into that phone . David, some things are hard and some things are right. And some things are both. This is one of those things. And in this case, you believe there are some something that should never be created . Correct. But tim cooke tells us they talked to the fbi early on giving them advice, he says on other ways to guest get information from that iphone to i cloud. Did they do that . Unfortunately, in the days, the early days of the investigation, an fbi directed the county to reset the i cloud password. When that is done, the flown no long erg back up to the cloud. And so i wish stleld contacted us earlier so that that would not have been the case. How usual was that missed opportunity . Very crucial. Im curious, tim, did you ever think that youd find yourself at the center of such a crucial National Debate be . No. This is this is not a position that we would like to be in. It is a very uncomfortable position. To oppose your government on something doesnt feel good. And to oppose it on something where we are advocating for supposed to protect, it is incredibly ironic. Apple now has till friday to sond to the courts order the fbi in the San Bernardino case. David muir, abc news, San Francisco. We should point out tim cooke did say he plans to fight this all the way to the Supreme Court if need be. It was fascinating with the poll numbers, a vast majority of america of americans support the fbi but support grew for apple among those who owned smart phones. So divided.

Cooke tells david muir that his company has cooperated fully with the fbi on the San Bernardino shooting investigation. But cooke says apple wont help the bureau break into the iphone of syed farook. Doing so they say would require software that would make hundreds of millions of customers vulnerable. The only way we know would be to write a piece of software that we view as sort of the software equivalent of cancer. We think its bad news to write. We would never write it. We have never written it. And that is what is at stake here. But a senior Government Official tells us the fbi wants apple to develop a way into the phone that will only be known to the company itself. In his interview, cooke also suggested the government made a mistake in not contacting apple before resetting the i cloyd password thats associated with the phone. Fbi directed the county to reset the i cloud password. When that is done, the phone will no longer back up to the cloud. And so i wish they would have contacted us earlier so that that would not have been the case. A Government Official counters that saying whether it was a mistake or not, the fbi would still be asking for access to the phone. Thats because the i cloud would not have provided access to all the data on the device.
