After you have read the case, express your views on Apple’s stance and FBI demands using the questions posed in the case (Jayakumar & Tahora, 2016, p. 1):

• Was Cook justified in his refusal to heed the U.S. government’s demand to build a one-time access to the iPhone retrieved from the terrorists on the grounds of protecting customer digital privacy?
• Was Apple’s obligation to protect customer privacy greater than its obligation to contribute to national security?
• What dilemmas did Cook and the Apple management team face in this decision?
• How could the dilemmas be resolved?
