A group of international lawyers representing Congo said Thursday that they sent letters to Apple’s CEO Tim Cook and its French subsidiary this week, raising concerns about human rights violations involving the minerals extracted from mines in the country’s troubled east that might end up being used in the company’s products.

90+ #policy and #rights #groups around the #world wrote #TimCook today to warn Apple that releasing its new, #universally-condemned #SpyPhone #update "will have laid the #foundation for #censorship, #surveillance and #persecution on a #global #basis."

#Princeton #Computer #Scientists: #Apple is " #gambling with #security, #privacy and #freespeech #worldwide."
The #core #design of Apple's new " #child-safety" #system—comparing your #photos against a #secret #blacklist—is #dangerous and "easily #repurposed for surveillance and censorship."

#EdwardSnowden: ' #Journalists should press HARD on the spyPhone #scandal. It is indefensible for Apple, which positions itself as a #pro-privacy #company, to push a #harshly #criticized #surveillance #paradigm into #one #billion #phones despite #condemnations by both #security #experts and #rights #groups.'
