Apple Chief Tim Cook Takes App Store Battle To Washington

Washington, United States: Apple head Tim Cook attacked moves to regulate his company's App Store in a rare speech in Washington on Tuesday, arguing that new rules could threaten iPhone users' privacy. Cook put forth the Silicon Valley giant's perspective as momentum gathered for legislation that could weaken Apple's app market dominance, which critics have said amounts to a monopoly. "We are deeply concerned about regulations that would undermine privacy and security in service of some other aim," Cook told an International Association of Privacy Professionals gathering. "Proponents of these regulations argue that no harm would be done by simply giving people a choice, but taking away a more secure option will leave users with less choice, not more," he added. At issue is efforts by policy makers in the United States and elsewhere to force Apple to let apps onto the iPhone from places other than the App Store, which is currently the only gateway onto the firm's billions of devices in circulation. Apple and Google hold a dominant position in the market, with their operating systems running on the overwhelming majority of the world's smartphones. Apple has clashed in court with Fortnite creator Epic Games, which has sought to break Apple's grip on the App Store, accusing the iPhone maker of operating a monopoly in its shop for digital goods or services.
