Tim Cook claims the denial of the history of the Chinese spy chip> Macerkopf

After Bloomberg presented its report on Chinese spy chips, causing a lot of troubles, Apple reacted quickly and denied the article. Now, Tim Cook personally confirms in an interview with BuzzFeed News that there has never been such an attack on Apple's server and that the Bloomberg story is so false.

Apple took the charges seriously

According to the Bloomberg report, Chinese spies could have infiltrated the critical technical infrastructure of companies such as Apple and Amazon by implementing tiny microchips in server hardware.

Although Apple does not generally respond to rumors, it was necessary to clarify as soon as possible that Bloomberg was misinformed because of the explosive nature of the story. This has been done in a detailed explanation. Now, Tim Cook has again personally devoted himself to the subject, which is also quite unusual.

Tim Cook told BuzzFeed News that he knew the Bloomberg article from the beginning. Bloomberg reporter Bruce Sewel questioned Apple at the time for more information. Although the company is still checking for new hardware, it has been thoroughly re-examined to determine if a Chinese spy chip was introduced anyway. However, Apple had found no evidence that he had ever handled such a technique in server rooms:

"We overthrew society […] We really went through the legal field to dig very deeply and each time we came to the same conclusion: this did not happen. This is not true. "

Bloomberg also spoke to Buzzfeed and continues to deny allegations of poor coverage of the case. For more than a year, they conducted research and conducted more than 100 interviews to investigate the possibilities of material handling:

"We are true to our history and trust our coverage and sources."
