We turn now to a Major New Development in the standoff between apple and the fbi. Late today, word apple has now responded to a judgs oer that it break into that bernardino. Appl refusing. Tonight, asking the judge to vacate the order. Apples move comes just 24 hours after our exclusive with apple ceo tim cook. We asked him, does he worry there could be information on that phone that cocould save lives . His answer here in a moment. And fiery moments on c capitol hill toy. The fbi director with his own words for apple. Abcs senior justice correspondent Pierre Thomas on the heated debate. Should apple break into that phone . Reporter tonight, apple defiant, arguing a judges order that apple help the fbi break into the San Bernadino terrorists iphone violates the constitution. Quote, dangerous power. The ve comes less than 24 hours after apple ceo tim cook sat down for an exclusive interview with our david muir revealing why they wont do it. 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. Yes. This is we w have no more information about this phone. The only way to get information, at least currently, 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 in your quiet moments, do you u have anyoncern that you 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. Reporter but today on capitol hill, critics taking aim at apple. Fbi director james comey, just hours after tim cooks argument, testifying this is only about one phone. This is a single phone in a very important investigation, where the ask is, to write a piece of software that will work only in that phone. Righght . Not in anybody elses phone. And you, apple, can hold the phone. I think apple leadership risks having blood on their hands and i think tim cook is going to have a hard time explaining why he stood in the way of justice on this issue. To some people at home, listening to this argument, who understand where youre coming from, who might say this was a terrorist attack on u. S. Soil, case that apple would make some sosort of exption, that this might be that moment. Do you reay want to plant the ed farooks iphone . Is incredibly important. Safety of our kids, safety of our families, is very important. The protection of peoples data is incredibly important. And, so, the tradeoff here is, we know that doing this could expose people to incredible vuerabilities. This is not something that we would create. This wld be bad more america.
