At the beginning of this month, Bloomberg published a report in which they commented that China was using spy chips to be able to infiltrate companies like Apple or Amazon, among others. Many of the companies that were in this report have been quick to get in step, as has happened with those in Cupertino. Tim Cook, the CEO of the company, has come out of these statements.
Tim Cook asks Bloomberg to retract after the news of the spy chips in China
They claim that Apple has never found malicious chips or hardware manipulations on its servers. But Bloomberg did not want to make it look as if they have maintained their point of view. What has angered Tim Cook?
Apple vs. Bloomberg
In an interview with an American media, the CEO of Apple has said that there is nothing true in the story that Bloomberg has brought to light. Therefore, ask the media to retract these claims. Affirms that the environment must do the right thing and recognize that they have made a mistake. A few strong statements, but that show the discomfort that has generated in the Cupertino company.
From the beginning, both Apple and Tim Cook have stated that the company was not involved in this type of activity. Although the American environment has maintained its version of events in these weeks. In addition, the company acknowledges that Bloomberg contacted them on several occasions to obtain information about this case.
They are also annoyed by the few tests that the media has shown in this investigation. So certainly the situation does not seem to end soon. Since Bloomberg does not seem to intend to retract for now.
